Cheating death and fighting communism: that is how a fellow officer once described our job. It was meant to be funny, but as time went on it seemed all too true.
I spent more than ten years in law enforcement, all of it on the street in uniform patrol. I've been a patrol officer, instructor, sergeant and lieutenant.

If someone is not going to be charged with anything, detectives are not likely to hold the subject for any period of time. States vary on how long an officer has to charge someone (generally 24 or 48 hours).

It depends on the state's laws. Some states yes, others no. Additionally, red light cameras typically operate under a different set of laws in each state.

Call your local police department and ask for their assistance. They will know what to do.

1. Noise violations are not crimes.
2. Just because you think it is noisy, doesn't mean it is a violation of local ordnance.
3. Calling the cops on your neighbor for a noise violation is a pretty petty thing to do.
4. Asking the government for permission to do something with your own property (i.e. your obsession with permitting) is repugnant. Even so, it is not likely enforceable by police officers.
I feel sorry for your neighbor.
