My neighbors called the cops on me and then got arrested for it
First time poster, so I'm sorry if I do or say anything wrong for this subreddit.
Context: I, 26f, my husband 32m, and our daughter, 5f, live in an apartment complex on the ground floor. We live in a mountain area so our breeze way is closed off on one side leaving us to share it with only one other neighbor.
A week ago I called the cops to file a report because I had $100-$200 worth of car supplies stolen from by my front door within a 3 hour period of time.
When they asked me who I suspected I did tell them my neighbors due to the fact I had our cop neighbor check his cameras and no one was seen coming or going from our breezeway.
I also pointed out to the officer that they get the cops called and at least one of them will get arrested regularly.
Turns out there was a protective order put in place 2 weeks prior against the boyfriend when he got arrested. The cops put 2 and 2 together and sent a patrol car to catch him there.
Needless to say it started a war. Small things here and there have been done such as screming at us, blaring their security system every time I open my front door, nothing but small inconveniences.
Up until yesterday that is. I left to go pick my daughter up from school and was gone for about an hour to an hour and a half.
When I pulled into the apartments I noticed a patrol car parked near the entrance and the boyfriend was there with his dogs talking to the cops and violently started pointing at my car.
I pulled up next to the officer and rolled down my window asking if I could help with anything. He instructed me to park near his partner.
His partner informed me that they had called the cops saying they heard gunshots through their security camera and gave my description.
Crazy thing is, I don't even own a gun. I told the officer this along with the fact I've been gone for the last hour and half.
He asked why I thought they would call and say such things and I told him I believed it was retaliation for last week.
He ended up being detained and his dogs were taken by animal control.
Now his girlfriend is going around to our neighbors saying I got him arrested and got their dogs taken away.
Funny thing is I don't remember calling the police yesterday but i guess i got him arrested guys🤷🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️😂
There was so much more before all this but I wanted to keep the post as direct and to the point as I could
