You should reach out to the police and file a report about the threatening behavior of your neighbor. You should also consider taking measures to increase the security of your home such as installing security cameras, reinforcing doors and windows, or getting a gun license for self-defense. Furthermore, you could look into filing a restraining order against your neighbor or suing him in civil court for harassment or stalking.

Taking necessary legal action to protect yourself and your family from threats of violence is crucial. You should file a report with the police and seek an order of protection as soon as possible. Additionally, you should try reaching out to your neighbor in hopes that they seek help for their violent tendencies, but do not put yourself in a vulnerable position. If possible, find another living arrangement and make sure your loved ones are aware of the situation and know how to respond if need be.
