Call the cops and report the van as suspicious, perhaps stolen, since it has a flat tire and it just appeared a couple of days ago. (this is mostly tongue in cheek)

The fence thing is kind of silly. If he had asked you ahead of time or even told you about it, you likely would have helped. Expecting you to pay after the fact is presumptuous. You never found out how much he wanted did you?

edit: from your last post it sounds like the guy wants to live in the stereotypical trailer park. I would hate to have that type of guy beside me. There are some people within a block of us who have broken down cars in their driveway and it would bug me if I lived beside them.
