I would be happy to help your grandmother. A letter to this neighbor would be a good start. She is permitted to videotape anything he is doing that is affecting her property. She should probably file in small claims court to recover her losses for the broken window and any other damage to her home. Feel free to call anytime: 216.952.1990
