Yikes! Did you call the police?
It’s kinda a long story but I did try to get the police involved but they were no help. He even shot an arrow at my friend and I when we were in my back yard. The police didn’t do anything because the arrow “got lost” during questioning in his mom’s driveway and she claimed the son was not home at the time. He is not mentally handicapped, his family uses the excuse that he is going through a bad divorce and is struggling with stress. He threatened to kill me because I reminded him of his ex-wife.
The second time he broke in, he had what is called an “Airsoft” pistol (not sure what that means). He was detained by my housesitter until police arrived. The police pressured me for a few weeks not to press charges because “he is a harmless guy who is having some bad luck.” When I said I wanted to press charges they threatened to arrest my housesitter. I found out that the real reason the police were protecting him is because his dad is some sort of big political donor.
I don’t think he will come in my yard anymore now.
