Q: My roommate works with are case workers and the housing program we are in. They are covering for him. They also did not

So my roommate has been lockung me out from using the unity room. I can not wash or dry clothes. He's made false statements about me. He's been agressive towards me since I caught him replacing the kitchen stove at 11pm one night . He got up in my face after I asked if he had premission to do this . He keeps repeating it's my job , it's my job . We are both living in a housing program . He seems to be working gor them and most likely under the table .He started stealing my food right after that and every time after that when he felt displeased with Me. He tried slapping my cell out of my hand once he realized I was recording his agressive behavior .Note I've not actually rec his face .. I've told my case work about everything he's done I. That's what I was advised to do by a police officer I talked too .I did not get a report fed that day of yet . My case worker and his are his coworkers if what he says is true .what can I do to protect myself from them covering for him ?
