Scary neighbour

Hey my neighbour apparently has mental health issues and does not take his meds. He has episodes literally every day shouting and talking to himself - day, night, middle of the night. The other day he was talking about slaughtering people. Today he was being racist and talking about killing people again and about 'an effing baby'. My baby just finished crying when I tried to put him in his cot so not sure if that annoyed him or it was a random coincidence. I am already scared of him and now I feel even more uncomfortable. I saw 4 police officers go to his door the other day but they didn't wait for him to answer and left. I don't know who to tell. If I tell the police and he knows I called them then that's obviously not good for me. I live alone with my 5 month old. I already asked my landlord a while back if he would consider a 6 month break clause in my tenancy because I was having problems with my BD at the time and he lives round the corner. I haven't gone to him since because he will just think i'm trying to find other excuses but this is actually scary and I am not sure what to do :( it has been going on since i moved here 7 months ago my tenancy is up after a year but not sure how much of this I can take. I'm on the council housing register and bidding every week but my bidding position is always high. sigh

Can't believe no ones replied. So sorry! Can you contact a crisis team somehow to get advice?

@Exhaustedmoose it's ok after a couple of hours I assumed i was probably on my own with that one 😂 thank you for taking the time to reply. For the time being I have decided not to stay there as I feel too uncomfortable x

Call the police every time. Let them know you feel threatened. (Especially the baby thing). They should come and do welfare checks.

@Fraaahnces not much help
But you say your tenancy is up in 1 yr and you've been there 7m you can give your notice 2m before so I would use the next 3months to find somewhere else. It does sound pretty scary. Ensure you have good security- locks on doors etc and yes call police every time and say you don't feel safe. They can't tell
Hun it's you that called x
