Tenant of rooming house destructive and violent, next steps

[Steve Borawski]

Very Early Morning All,

So here's the situation (In Ohio). I have a tenant that is thrashing and screaming in her room. As you can imagine this is scaring the other roommates. She does periodically come out and destroy something minor. The police have been called and she has been picked up by an ambulance. This has happened twice. Each time I reach out and talk to her she seems okay. They don't keep her at the hospital and just release her back. Just got a voicemail at 1:00 a.m. and she's at it again, third time. No I didn't get the voicemail because I was sleeping. 

I'm worried for her safety and those of the other tenants. 

Any ideas of next steps would be greatly appreciated. Yes I'm going to call a lawyer but it is 4:00 a.m. and I will probably post notice for her to vacate. But I was wondering if there is anything to be done in the meantime because it does take a while to evict and she may easily hurt herself by then.

Morning All,

I wanted to give you an update. Also, thank you all for you feedback because it’s always good to get different perspectives.

So, I placed a 3-day notice on the tenant’s door that the lease has
been violated. I laid out the issues of noise and disturbing the other tenets. I expected to meet her at the house and go over the issues but
I had to send a message instead. Surprisingly she understood the issues and agreed to move out. I agreed to give her back the full security deposit even though there was some damage. She moved out as scheduled and I gave her the security deposit back.

There was fall out and I had another tenant move out while I was working on getting the tenant to move out. But honestly it could have
been worse. Rooming house are a pain but the money is so good, lol.
