Renters Arrest for Burglary in Neighborhood.
Hello, I am a new landlord and 2 months into my first tenants lease his 16 year old son was caught and arrested for breaking and entering a neighbors home. He was caught VIA video footage. I did a background check on the father and he cleared with flying colors come to find out that his son has been on house arrest and arrested for burglary multiple times before. What are my rights as a landlord. The crime at question did not happen on my property but 2 houses down. But the stolen property was recovered in my rental property when the probation officer and cops did a "random" inspection after the neighbor reported it to the authorities. IS this ground for eviction for criminal actions even though the crime did not happen on the rental property.
