Under the law landlords must provide quiet enjoyment of the leased property to the tenant. Failure to do so is a breach of contract. I'm not sure if the facts you describe show that the landlord has breached this provision of the lease. I recommend you get copies of the police reports for each of these instances and show them to an attorney. You may have a case for breach of contract.
