I'm sorry, what is a "creepy van"? What sort of crime is "showing up in our neighborhood"? Is it a private gated neighbourhood that outsiders aren't allowed into? What's the problem here? The way I read this you were made that some guy drove a van and he didn't actually do anything wrong until after you bothered him.

It's a van that sits on the road for a few hours each time it shows up. Illegally tinted windows so you can't see in. Sunshades in the windshield, so you can't see the driver. Our neighborhood is near a high school and middle school (one block away), and the guy freaked out a handful of neighbors. The dude is sketchy.

The only thing that really shows he is a menace is him threatening to shoot you. The other stuff is mostly cultural bias and sketchy behavior and worth little in your argument.
