Rental says unit broken into

[Nadeem Najam]

So this is my first rental in the Indy area. Unit was rented by some one who was the manager for a about a year and then gave over managing to me. The renter has been pretty great generally for over a year. Just now I didn't get Feb's rent. He didn't pick up my calls. I had the original manager get a hold of him and this is what he tells me : The unit was broken into about 10 days ago. He says he was 'scared' from me so didn't contact me - but I haven't done anything to scare him. He says that the front door was damaged which he got repaired but there is some damage on the back side as well. He changed the locks apparently. I am going to do a walk through later this week with him. Any suggestions ? The whole thing seems a bit off to me.  Thanks
