Oh my God?! You should sue the crap out of the city, the state, and the country. I mean, you had no plates on your car and your friend had a warrant. I can't believe those pigs would bother you for that. \nPeople complain about frivolous lawsuits but half the people on here say you should sue. For what? Because you and your friend broke the law. Grow up and take responsibilty for yourself.

You could always call Non-Emergency 911 for your area and ask to speak to an officer.  Tell them your situation and ask for a police escort.  They will assist you.

You did a great job of keeping your eyes open and being aware of your surroundings !\nThis makes a huge difference. If you carry a cell phone, trust your instincts and call 911 and try to see the license plate. A good description of the vehicle and it's occupants is also helpful (two white males, etc.)\nIf you think they followed you to see where you lived, make sure the police are aware right away. Can you stay somewhere else until your parents get back ? I would have to assume they will return to the location to see if you are around again. \nStay in tune with your instincts and surroundings, carry pepper spray (be sure to shake quickly before spraying) and never hesitate to let others know your whereabouts constantly.\nMost predators want easy targets and people who don't pay attention, so make yourself very visually aware and obvious of what's happening at all times. Walk with someone else whenever possible and always check out your surroundings - if something doesn't seem right than it probably isn't.

Glad you aren't related to me! Yikes!  But, really though you do sound like you have some problems you need help with before you do something you will regret.  Call a mental help line or your doctor or if you really think you might hurt somebody just call the police & they will take you to a place where you can get help.  Please call them BEFORE you hurt or kill anybody ok?

Sweetheart, the problems of your parents are exactly that-their problems.  You are not a cause of it.  I know that you feel like they don't care about you but they choose to have you, I am sorry they yell at you.  Try talking to your school counselor or your pastor.  You are not to blame.  But sweetie, if you run away you don't make the situation any better for anyone.  Life on the streets isn't pretty, you will get hurt!  Please stay home and talk to someone first and if nothing changes there are other alternatives.  Please don't do it.   Someone does care!!

First and formost contact your local authorities, by calling information to get the number of your local police station for NON emergancies. They will give you more options for what you can do.\n\nIf you're still living at home with your parents notify them and ask if you can get your number changed, or have this number blocked.\n\nIf you're in school, it would be wise to let your principles know what the situation is because they're there to protect you and everyone else.\n\nIf you drive - try to keep someone in the car with you, if you're walking - no matter what - continuously look around and know your surroundings, a house you can walk up if somone comes after you, ect. Always put your keys in your hands so there's a key between each finger - do this with the hand you right with. So If you have to throw a punch in defence - you can, and so much more.\n\nCarrying a small bottle of mace (anywhere but in school) would be a good idea as well.\n\nGood luck with everything, and always be careful.

This may be a little late, but you should notify your local police department about the threat and the person who is threatening you. If possible, stay out of your environment in case they strike you or harm you and your children in some way. If you know this persno, find a way to recieve a restraining order from court. And, if possible as well, settle your dispute with the person and see a solution for your disagreements. I hope that all will be well in your life and I will be praying for you, whether or not you believe in the same God that I do. I wish you peace.

police is the right authority here. please approach the closest police station to your house/locality. tell them the problem & provide them with details. they will ask u to file a complaint in their register. after that they would probably send some constables to your neighbours to investigate the matter. hopefully seeing the constables, your neighbour changes his attitude & matter gets settled there itself.

Alert the local media, you can bet if they start to investigate why the cops aren't doing anything, it will light a fire under law enforcement butts.  Just make sure you are discreet and not letting your name get out there, you don't want to become a target of these scummy, scary people.

The first thing you need to do is call the police. They will need to interview you and to take some evidence and they will make sure you get medical care.  Don't have a shower, or if you have, make sure you keep the clothes you were in.  The police should help you to get in contact with some victim support.  Is there someone close to you who you can tell, like a parent or a good friend?  If you are scared, it can help to have someone like them close by.\n\nNumber one thing to remember - this isn't your fault.  You are going to get through this and a lot of people will be praying for you and wishing you well.

Deal with it. You can't do nothing bout it. And don't even \ntry to sneak out the house then you'll be in more trouble.

is there a reason why you are wearing one?  my guess is that you need to look at yourself and what you did and hold yourself accountable for the wrong you did. once you do that, you can beat house arrest.

If ignoring doesn't work, or he creeps you out too much:\nTell him FIRMLY that if he continues to follow you around, that you will begin contacting authorities (police, the principal, etcetera- I don't know your situation). \n\nI once had a problem with someone like that, and he called my bluff. I actually called the nonemergency police line. To hear me talking with someone in Authority scared him and he never bothered me again.\n\nCarry your cell phone with you at all times and have alternate routes/emergency plans in your head.\n\nBe safe.
