Is tenant responsible - need opinions

I need some opinions from the community....

My tenant informed me today the front door was kicked in by her daughter's 19 year old boy friend when she would not allow him into the home. Upon arriving home from work, my tenant called the police and filed charges. A warrant has been put out for his arrest and police are actively pursuing his apprehension.

Is the tenant responsible for the cost associated with the required repairs? The reason for him even being at the property was the result of a relationship with the tenant's daughter; however it was against her will and a criminal act. 

Let me know what everyone thinks....I really appreciate your feedback.

Thanks
