More details to this question:
I was at a property with my friend and it was his families place. He told me we had permission to be there from his grandpa. Neighborhood calls police and they come and arrest us for burglary of a building. They would not allow him to call his family to verify we had permission.

Assuming your friend had permission, it will not likely stick as a burglary charge. Burglary is basically trespassing with the intent to commit another crime such as an assault or a theft. You should consult with a local criminal defense attorney. Criminal defense attorneys usually offer a free 20 to 30 minute consultation. Good luck.
