Did you have a contract or employment agreement with this individual? Have you filed a police report?

Call the police. Stealing is a crime.

Hello

I don’t have contact with him. I’ve been 1099 him for 6 months and paying him by check since he does like this I think I would consider not to claim him on tax. I’m planning to file the police report. What should I do with his room ? Thanks a lot for your advice.

He’s not coming back. Lock up the place after you file the report. If he comes back, he can be arrested.

Would you please explain what you mean by “not claim him on tax”. How does this help the situation?
