Car accident & neighbour

I live alone in a block of flats. I had a car accident on the road I live on about two months ago - my mistake, held my hands up, insurance sorted.

I was woken up yesterday by the neighbour and two men from the next block. Their car had been hit the night before with considerable damage to a door. (I'd not been out since earlier in the week (and off my face on strong prescribed opioids since). She'd convinced them I was responsible, purely because of my earlier accident. It doesn't matter that my car has NO NEW DAMAGE! She hung around with them tearing strips off me, they then drove off.

Neighbour then remarked that my car was "too big", "inconsiderately parked" - I park outside my flat block!, and "you should get a (nonexistent) garage".

I'm hopefully moving "soon" but how do I deal with her? Ignoring doesn't work, she once threatened to get the police out as she hadn't seen me for a bit!!

You should be calling the police that the neighbour is threatening you!

I think I'd be inclined to call the non emergency police number, to seek advice. Firstly, you've been falsely accused of damaging another vehicle, which could lead to more issues if they have noted your registration number and file a report.
Secondly, you've been threatened.

I never thought of that. Am in a queue to speak to them. Thank you :)
