I am not sure what you think you may be entitled to? The apartment fired the man for his act. They took remedial action immediately.
If you were not harmed and nothing is missing, a sincere apology might be appropriate. Otherwise, you have no entitlement to anything.

What do you want? Unless he stole or damaged something, it does not sound like you have any damages? Arguably, they may have breached the lease agreement, but are you trying to get out of the apartment?
