How would you handle this situation?

Ok well here's my dilemma. I have lived in the same house for the past 5 years. In this time I have become very close with a few of my neighbors. One of them being a young couple That has been together for 12 years, and they lived with her mother and father Until about a year ago when they moved directly across the road. The mother had MS and passed away January of this year. The daughter already had depression/anxiety issues as she has been caring for her mom for the past 10 years. She is I believe 25 years old maybe 26. She and her boyfriend have had some pretty serious fights many times. Yelling and screaming, hitting walls, slamming doors etc.. They have a daughter themselves now that is almost three years old. The boyfriend who is I believe 28 has never had a stable job but he did work when he could and he also helped in caring for her mom. After the mom died they lost their income because the daughter was payed by the state to care for her mother. They got on public assistance which required him to go through The work source program which provides him assistance in getting his GED and searching for a job, possibly even college assistance. So he starts going to these classes and doing everything he is supposed to do which also required he do homework. While he was in class she would call him and pick fights accusing him of being with other women etc.. over the two weeks he was doing what he was supposed to their fighting got worse and worse. Then one day his dad calls whom he hasn't seen in about 18 years. He talks to his dad off and on for a couple of days. Then he was trying to do his homework and while I was at their house for a moment he asked her to please take the baby and play somewhere so he could finish his homework. She flipped out and he said "I can not do this anymore. I just can't take it, and I don't want to fight in front of the baby anymore" and he left. Since then it has been absolute chaos. He then becomes so depressed over this, he goes to stay with his best friend of many years that he pretty much hadn't spoken with in months because the best friend got addicted to heroin. Well needless to say he started using and by the time a week and a half went by he looked like hell. With a little help from myself and a few other people,..he decided after constant chaos and trouble with the babies mom, and now using drugs to go see his dad in Arizona for a few weeks so he could try to get clean also.. In the mean time she starts dating her best friends brother, and she's still fighting with babies dad on the telephone. So he finds out about the new bf and of course is even more and more distraught. He has now lost his girlfriend, and his baby, and the only family he has had for the past 12 or so years. He comes back here to Washington in hopes to save any chance he has of getting his family back. He comes here, and asks to see the baby. They refuse to let him take her to the park saying they can't trust him to bring her back etc...big verbal fight breaks out, the new bf starts chasing babies dad while she is on his shoulders. I go running after him for fear baby will get hurt in all this. I get the new bf stopped and told him to go back inside the house. She then follows babies dad still arguing and refusing to let him visit the baby. I end up calling the cops because all this crap is happening in front of this little girl etc. The same thing happens the next day, and the day after that. Mean while this kid is sleeping in his truck for the past 5 days. He has nowhere to go, and every time he calls or tries to see the baby it's a big fiasco. I am the only comfort he has and even though he has been clean off drugs since he went to Arizona I can't let him stay here because I live right across the driveway from babies mom and the new bf. I love that baby, and both him and her, but she and her father are really really being cruel to him. All he wants is to spend 3 hours a day with his daughter. He would never not bring her back and they know that. Frankly I think her dad likes the new bf better, and she is playing the victim here which in reality she's just as guilty as the babies dad for all this. My heart is torn, it kills me to know he is sleeping in his truck and has no help from nobody other than myself and my husband, and I can't even let him stay here. He was sleeping in is truck last night and two guys pulled him out and kicked him in the head and beat him so badly that he passed out. They didn't steal his truck or any of his tools, clothes or anything else he has. How coincidental. Have you dealt with something like this before? If so how did you handle it? If not, what do you think you would do in this situation.
