I live in a one bedroom apartment underneath a house. I live here with my three cats, my dog and my partner. Upstairs is a family of five. Yesterday the man took some sort of speed like drug and lost the ****ing plot. He was screaming and throwing **** so I called the police. Turns out another neighbor called the police as well as his girlfriend. Cops took him away and let him go in town, later that night he was arrested for drunk and disorderly. He was only released a few hours ago into the care of a safe house. He's just shown up. Knocked on my door becasue all the doors to upstairs are locked. I, stupidly, told him they were home. I heard him manage to slide a window open and break in. He's now upstairs. I think he's crying or something. but I don't feel safe with him there. If he'd shown up in the morning, it'd probably be okay. But tonight? I feel like I will have to sleep with my phone in my hand and 000 on speed dial. I HATE feeling unsafe. I hate it. :(

Oh my goodness that's horrid! I can't imagine how you--or even his family--must feel right now. I hate when the police let people like that go! How did everything turn out? Are you okay?
Had to call cops again cause he was threatening her and the kids with a knife. Full on pyschotic break. Cops kept him overnight and then let him go again! They've just had to pick him up yet again cause he was wandering through peoples backyards with no shoes on (it's middle of winter here). He kept asking for his ex gf (they were together 5 years ago but she recently died of a drug od). He's lost the plot. he needs to be in the psych ward. If they'd put him there in the first place he'd be down of whatever he took by now and none of this **** would have happened. I'm so anxious and scared he'll get out again and come back. :(

I understand how unnerving that can be. once when lived in a small apartment by myself, I was taking a nap and woke to a child screaming and I kept hearing a smack every few seconds and then screams. I got up and and knocked on their door and this huge man slung his door open and said "What!?" I saw the little boy bent over the bed crying and this horrible man had a leather strap i his hand. I was scared but I asked if everything was ok. He told me that his son had gotten in trouble at school but he was beating him. I went home and it stopped but the next day they had moved. I still worry that I may have made the situation worse for the child, but yes, I was scared too.
I hope they finally realize this man is very ill and needs treatment and not jail just to be released again. Prayers going out for you sweetie.
Cops got involved again. And he is FINALLY in hospital. They're doing a urine test to figure out what he's taken. But I don't want him to come back here >.<
