*UPDATE*
I consulted with an attorney about courses of action and went to speak to my complex about the issue last Friday, but they had a copy of the police report (per my request) I got a call at work on Monday from my room mates girlfriend who said the guy and his dad were calling her names as they moved out under the supervision of 2 security guards and a police officer. Apparently he was evicted and management notified security that he is not permitted on the premises. I have to say that I'm pretty happy with management's response to this as I really didn't have to prod them at all.
For Valentines day this year I'd planned a nice dinner in with my Girlfriend, white tablecloth with rose petals, candles, her favorite flowers, champagne, salmon and sea scallops, the whole bit. So anyways last night about 5 minutes before my girlfriend was going to arrive I go outside to pull the Salmon off the Grill and see my neighbor (in an apartment complex) who (according to the police report) is 6'6 270 and definitely looks like he roids, absolutely smashing things on our porch with a baseball bat. My room mate was on the upstairs balcony with his shotgun out and I'm wondering what in the hell I've walked in on.
So the guy comes storming up to me calling me by name (I've never met him before) and says that the complex told him I was responsible for some sort of destruction of property (he claims I was billed for this) anyways I told him I'm happy to settle this like adults, but as my girlfriend was on the way it would have to wait until tomorrow. To which he replied "Don't fsck with me, I'm going to make your life hell, and that's not a threat it's a warning" So naturally I inquired what exactly he meant by this and he replied "I'm going to fsck you up when you sleep" So I called security and they asked if I would like to call the police, but I didn't want to ruin Valentines day for my girlfriend so I said that I would call them in the morning.
Anyways probably 3 hours later we've finished dinner a bottle of Dom, and have retired to my bedroom when I get a knock at the door, I open it up to see 4 uniformed officers. I was confused at first because I said I would deal with it in the morning, but apparently my neighbor called the cops on us because he was scared my room mate was going to use the gun on him as he tried to force his way into our apartment (to be fair he would have as soon as he got inside) anyways we had an hour long conversation with the cops who INSISTED on questioning my girlfriend who wasn't even there when this happened, during which time my neighbor admitted to coming over and smashing our things and provoking my room mate. The police filed an incident report simply because there was no *real* damage (he apparently was hitting the puching bag with his bat and the grill, but nothing was really broken.
So now I have to figure out what I need to do to file a restraining order I guess and what the complex will do to at least move this maniac so he isn't my neighbor.
Anyone have any experience with this sort of thing? This is the second time that he's come to my apartment with a baseball bat, the first time he just called me some names as I was walking out the door to a business meeting. I don't understand how "adults" can behave in this manner.
