Neighbours fighting, what to do?

Hi, had a look online but I’m really not sure what to do so hoping someone can advise.
Our neighbours argue at least a few times a week. It’s usually done within about 10 minutes. They have a child, somewhere between 9-11.

This evening they’ve been fighting off and on for about 2 hours now. We’ve heard the man shouting (it’s mostly him - he’s very loud), the woman, and also the child. All sound very aggressive. I’m really worried about the child in that environment and I’m concerned for him. I’d call the police in a heartbeat, but I’m also really worried for my own family, as I fully imagine the man would come at us if we did phone the police, he is very confrontational. We live in a semi detached, so I don’t think anyone else will be hearing them, so I think they’d know it’s us.

I have a LO that I don’t want in harms way, so that’s my hesitancy on calling the police, but what do I do?

Phone police non emergency for advice

When you say fight do you mean row? If so, some couples do behave like this. Not sure what the police would do, they'll just say they're arguing. They not against the law.

If you believe violence is involved I'd ring for advise.

Otherwise if just arguments I wouldn't tbh. Not sure what they could do for just arguing.
