More details to this question:
Friends of a tennant in an appartment complex are parking in the designated space for a different tennant/appartment frequently. The tennant has been informed by the other tennant not to have their friends park in their designated space. Is it allotable to take pictures of the offending tennant and their friends in/around the offending vehicles to identify the individules involved for the property owners and police dept.?
I t would be legal, but you should be very careful in taking the photographs and try not to have the faces of any children, or if you do have the faces, to mark those out before showing the pictures to anyone else. for example, if you want to ask the manager of the apartment complex to enforce the parking issue, and want to show the manager the photographs, block out the faces of any children in the pictures before showing the pictures.
