A family say they are living in fear after a campaign of abuse by nightmare neighbours was followed by a suspected arson attack on their car and another fire this week.Jamie Stephenson, 28, his ex-partner Rebecah Credland, 25, and their three young children have fled their home in Wortley, Leeds, after being hit with insults and threats from a couple in their neighbourhood.The abuse was followed by a suspected arson attack on their car, though there is no suggestion this was set by their neighbours.In July, their new Audi A3 was set alight after someone poured petrol through the window in what police believe was a deliberate attack but for which officers could not identify a suspect.A separate fire - believed to be unconnected to the first - was started by the side of their house this week just below a bedroom where their five-month-old girl, two-year-old boy and five-year-old girl sleep.Despite the risk their family faces, the couple have been unable to convince their housing association to let them move, even going as far as negotiating a swap deal with tenants in another council house only to be told the move would not be allowed.They have been forced to flee with their children and now split their time between the couple's parents' houses, which are overcrowded, at one point sleeping in a tent in Ms Credland's mother's garden.Mr Stephenson's mother has started a GoFundMe appeal to raise funds for the family. Jamie Stephenson, Rebecah Credland and their family have been forced to leave their home in Leeds after a tirade of abuse from neighbours and a suspected arson attack After weeks of arguments with and threats from their neighbours, the family's car was burned out overnight Police believe a window was smashed before petrol was poured into the car and set alight Ms Credland said the Audi had a car seat for their children inside, which had been destroyed in the fireAfter moving into the two-bedroom terraced house in 2023, the family initially had a good relationship with their neighbours until they received a noise complaint from a couple eight months in. They said they could hear Mr Stephenson playing video games through the walls.A spat began when the family also complained about noise, and Ms Credland told the Daily Mail the argument 'sparked up this massive hate campaign'.They allege their wifi wire had been cut, rubbish was dumped in their garden and WD40 was sprayed on to Mr Stephenson's car window in a months-long series of attacks.When they reported the incidents to West Yorkshire Police they say they were told the force did not have the funds to investigate.Scared by the potential repercussions, Ms Credland said she stopped her children playing in the garden and tried to quieten them when they made noise.The initial spate of attacks was followed by a period of calm where the family said they did not speak to the neighbours. The family endured a tirade of abuse from nightmare neighbours in the months before the fire One video showed neighbours calling the family 'tramps' and telling them that if they called police, they would 'see what happens to [their] house'But matters escalated again when the couple's son drew chalk marks on a section of fence.Ms Credland said: 'My children were just chalking and my son had drawn a line on the fence.'The neighbours then came round later on. I answered the door and he was screaming abuse at me. Get that f****** line off! You tramp! You this and the other.'I don't have any control over my son and he's literally two years old.'She said they called police that evening but were told it was a civil matter and could not be solved by officers unless one party moved out of the street.Just over 24 hours later, the couple's car was hit by an arson attack which gutted the Audi Mr Stephenson had received just months before through a salary sacrifice scheme.The new, black car was reduced to a white shell with a melted car seat inside, leaving the family petrified.However, police were unable to identify a suspect for the arson and no arrests were made. Ms Credland said thinking of the damage even now 'makes me feel sick to my stomach'.'It was just horrible,' she said, adding the children's bicycles had been in the boot at the time. The family's car was gutted by the fire, which was set in a nighttime attack, but they were not visited by police for 36 hours afterwardsThe family claimed it took police 36 hours to come to their home to take a statement after the arson attack, when officers told them it looked as though someone had smashed a rear window and poured petrol on to the £400 car seat before setting it alight.'Since then I've been staying between my parents' house and Jamie's parents' house with all three children, which is extremely overcrowded,' Ms Credland said.She said police told her there was not enough evidence to take action against any suspects.Because of the lack of police action, Ms Credland said the authority which manages their home, Wortley Housing, had said it was safe for her to return.But she said the family does not feel safe in the house, which was hit by another attack this week when a fire was started down one side of the property.However police said this was unconnected to the car blaze and was believed to have been started by youths, who set several similar fires in the neighbourhood.The mother said she felt 'fobbed off' by authorities and 'terrible' for her children.'I've literally just got nowhere,' she said.'I literally have no idea what I am supposed to do. As a mum, I feel terrible because it's my job to protect the children and I don't feel like I can do anything to do that. Do you know what I mean? It's a terrible thing to feel like that.'Ms Credland asked previous tenants for their experiences of the neighbours and said she had put together a litany of testimony detailing the culture of fear under which they had been forced to live. This week the family's home was hit by another fire though police believe it is unconnected to the blaze in the car Mr Stephenson said the latest fire burned under the window of their children's bedroom, which now smells of smokeShe said she wanted to 'put pressure' on the housing association to 'realise that they have a responsibility' and a duty of care.'It's a safeguarding thing that all these young families have been put in here with the same neighbours causing the same issues,' she added.Leeds City Council said housing officers 'continue to be in dialogue' with Ms Credland and said a 'revised assessment' and 'updated application to hopefully secure alternative accommodation' would come 'as soon as possible'.West Yorkshire Police said it was 'sorry to hear' of the impact recent events had had on the family.A spokesman said: 'Between 9 and 11 July, we received three separate reports in relation to a public order offence and offences of criminal damage and arson which were all attended by officers.'The arson report was investigated by specialist detectives, who after a thorough review were unable to positively identify a suspect.'We also received a report that a grass area had been set on fire outside this family's property on 15 August. This was part of a series of similar incidents in the area and does not at this stage appear to be connected.'
