In the article, they did call the police:
> We called the police, who took the camera as evidence and encouraged us to leave the property immediately. We also contacted Airbnb and were put in touch with Liviana, a member of the company’s safety team...
Filing a police report might be helpful, but I agree this is likely to be frustrating in many places.
A friend once called the cops because a neighbor was having a psychotic break and trying to break into her apartment. This went on for hours - luckily the door was sturdy.
The cops never showed up. The next morning they called her to ask if she was still OK.
- IlikeKitties 1y agoSpeaking about Germany here, I have a friend who had a neighbour in a similar situation and two cops showed up and convinced her to come with them into a psychiatric hospital. My friend was very happy with the results. In america i'd tell the cops i have a gun loaded and am ready and willing to fire if the neighbour breaks through the wall. Cops tend to show up then
- p1esk 1y agoWould you actually have a gun loaded and willing to fire? Or would you lie to the cops?
- IlikeKitties 1y agoSadly, i don't get to have a gun in Germany. In the us, depending on the state, absolutely.

- tdeck 1y agoIt seems clever until the cops show up and shoot you by accident.
