I'm worried about my security and safety after 5 police officers came to the house at 4am and arrested a man living in the flat of my upstairs neighbour . Before they took him away i heared them say it was for failing to attend court. My neighbour herself tried to assault me last year and I do not even know if the housing association know the man who was arrested yesterday is living there. My neighbour and i share a front door on a street property. What can I do to ensure my safety and security now?

In what way do you think you are at risk?

A man living in a different property close to yours was arrested, why would that change your risk profile in any way?

If you're in a housing association property could you see if there's a swap list or if they have any other properties you could move into?

You could ask if you can put a ring doorbell up.

Someone at your neighbour's home getting arrested isn't in itself a risk to your safety .

Are you always this dramatic? Stop making it about you 😂
