Police visit looking for guest

My long term guests have been a little on the unusual side, making us increasingly uncomfortable with their stay. Today a police officer showed up banging on the door looking for our guest. We answer the door to find someone (we think our guest's dad) dumping clothes out in front of our home. Obviously this is completely unacceptable and is going to raise a lot of eyebrows in our conservative neighborhood. They only have about a week left of their stay but I'm thinking of asking them to leave sooner so as to avoid any​ additional incidents like this. But don't want to be penalized by Airbnb for doing so. Thoughts?

@Anna588  You haven't shared what other behaviors of your guests made you uncomfortable, however, if you are not comfortable with a guest, you should contact Air BNB to discuss relocating the guests.  It would help if you had messaged the guest about uncomfortable behavior, but certainly the police visit would substantiate you have a difficult situation.  What has been your communication with the guest since the police visit?  In case you need contact information, here is a link to a guide about contacting Air BNB
