Do you have odd neighbors?

I moved into an upscale new community about 2 years ago. Our house is probably the least expensive in it. There are some snooty people who live here and they must really try to make life miserable for everyone. The other day my 16 year old son was picked up by his friend to go to the store. My son doesn't drive yet. His friend is 18 and has a new Civic. They were behind another car and that car went to park so they made a wide circle and went around it. The dad of the people in the parking car got mad and jumped in his corvette and sped up and swung his car across the road so they had no where to go. The boys got scared and had to drive on the sidewalk to get away from the nut job. This made him madder so he started to chase them through the community, through the town, and onto the highway - yes a grown man - maybe 50 years old - trying to run them off the road all the while driving his corvette. He finally pulled off the highway and then my so called me. That night the lunatic comes pounding on my door around 9pm demanding to speak to my son. I told him that he should be talking to me - adult to adult. That if my son did anything wrong he could have called the cops or spoken to me. I told him he was out of his mind trying to kill them. He then proceeded to threaten my son and me saying he will take care of us. I said is that a threat? and he said no, it's a promise!! He then was stupid enough to post this online so I printed it and took it to the cops. They said I could have him arrested but I said just go to his house and let him know I had the option to have him arrested. Have you ever had to deal with a neighbor like this? What do you think I should do? Did I do enough?

May i tell you, neighbors may be best friends and worst enemies, if one is too close, or not at all friendly than problem arise, i keep just formal relations with my neighbors, attend the functions etc, but never get too close.. nice discussion, thnxs for sharing kalyani
