Someone threatened tenant, stabbed holes in overhead garage door!

Hi All,

I received a text from one of my tenants last night stating "some guy started threatening my boyfriend for some reason and came to our house while we weren't there and stabbed holes in the garage door... I just called 911 to make a police report"

Any ideas on how to proceed? Is it their responsibility to pay for the repairs even though they did not do the damage themselves? Any thoughts would be appreciated!

So in college, I worked nights as an EMT to help pay the bills.  I learned, from the emergency room staff, and cops, that there are, in any given city, 3 brothers that perpetrate all crimes.  

"This dude"

"some dude"

"a dude"

We never did catch any of the Dude Brothers, but they are a real force to be reckoned with.  Saw a lot of spilled blood and property damage.  

Boot the tenants and call your agent.  The end.
