What are you to do if you happen to move into a place with a level-10 Karen neighbor? A level-10 Karen means she has already surpassed leaving passive aggressive notes, attempts to break into your house like she owns it, and now even the police know not to take anything she says seriously. Unfortunately, she only does just enough to threaten you, but not quite enough to actually get arrested. So what do you do? For one TikToker and her family, this meant war. 

A family—a wife, husband, and 5-year-old child—moved into their apartment two years prior. They never really had an issue until the banging on their walls and yelling started happening. Their Karen neighbor all of a sudden constantly started throwing tantrums. Then their car got broken into and found footprints in the fresh snow that went directly to Karen's place. They didn't have cameras yet, but immediately got some. They quickly got proof of their Karen neighbor trying to break into their house while they were away on vacation. It wasn't until she came banging on their door threatening to hurt them and trying to break in that the police finally arrested the Karen. 

All during this very stressful time for the family, they would post the security footage of the Karen on their TikTok. Not only to store the proof, but also to find a supportive community. They quickly found it in fellow TikTokers and many gave advice and promised to follow their story. So far there have not been more updates, but the family promises to post them as they come. Hopefully the next step is a restraining order.
