I am going to have to write this with as little information as possible so as not to identify myself. So I and a few neighbours have had problems with my neighbour for a while. Vandalising things, common assault. Recently, threats that he was watching us. Of course all caught on camera and reported to police to no avail. Now, I have been worried since this started, but not as much as after this most recent incident which is as follows.
At 1am the other morning I heard him fighting with a man in a car that pulled up. He started verbally fighting with the man in the car threatening his life eventually retrieving a weapon from his premises to attack him, at which point I called 999. The car drove off before he reached him. He went back in. I was on the phone to police telling them what's unfolding. Then this massive fight broke out in his house with his wife and kids all involved, I could hear scuffling and like people being hit. I relayed to the police. They arrived and restrained him in the street, arresting him. The police got our version of events and said they would need the footage from my camera. I got it all saved and ready in my phone. Noone contacted for this. What i am concerned about is whether the police are taking this seriously. After being threatened by him i now concerned he is capable of a lot more than I first thought. If they have only taken his version of events into account then it will all be lies, he will be released and he will definitely know we called police. It is really concerning me. I am even scared he has already been released. Yesterday, a police man was in the house for a long time! He went in with a brief case. Im not sure what this could possibly be. I do believe drugs are involved but its honestly the least of my worries. The violence and recklessness is scary now. I called 101 to see what I could find out. Im not interested in the ins and outs of their business. I just want to know that this is being taken seriously and they aren't swallowing all the bull sh it they feed them. I am worried for myself and family.
If this is not taken seriously, it honestly will be the last thing I report to police and I urge everyone to start just doing what they need to do to protect themselves. This country is falling apart.
