Neighbours always causing drama in the street

As the title suggests I have a few neighbours that always seem to be causing/involved in drama in the street. One lives a few doors down with her partner and kids. The couple next door to me are her parents. Constant arguing and shouting in the street from these two sets of neighbours with other people who come down the street. I was woken up to a call from the one a few doors down telling me my window has been smashed(I didn't hear as I was in bed and my room is at the back of the house).came out to see what's happened as the police were called. She's outside and so is her mum who lives next door. Both telling the police and me that this guy has randomly come out of nowhere throwing bricks in the street for no apparent reason and one has hit one of my downstairs front windows..showed the next doors ring camera footage of the guy throwing the brick.shes sent this to the police as they wanted it as evidence. On my way home from work this afternoon I saw another lady who also lives in the street and I have asked her if she saw or heard anything. She said didn't you hear it all? I said no as I was in bed. She said he was out there for an hour banging on the neighbours a few doors down arguing with her and her partner and that her mum next door has also got involved in the argument mouthing off at him also and that when he threw that brick he aimed it at her but she dodged it and it hit my window after missing her. So they've lied to the police and I'm the one stuck with a broken window when none of this is anything to do with me at all. I have updated the police with the information I've been given. I suspect the next door neighbour has probably cut the video footage down before giving it to the police eliminating any of them being involved in arguing with this guy and only showing him throwing the bricks in the street
Can the police request that she hands over the full uncut footage?

I’m not sure it matters tbh. He threw the brick, they have that footage. They fact they were arguing with him before hand doesn’t make them responsible. He is entirely responsible for his own actions, they didn’t make him throw it.
They do sound awful though, are you able to move or are you stuck there?

Unfortunately we're stuck here I'm a single parent with 3 children council closed my housing application as we aren't a priority due to being adequately housed and another private let isn't affordable due to the high deposits. This is likely all over drugs as the one a few doors down is selling drugs. They've lied to the police to avoid being found out.
