- Yes. It doesn't mean that they will collect, but they can sue.
- In the UK - the owner of a property owes a duty to visitors to the property should an accident occur on the premises. However, a criminal act is very different as this is a deliberate wilful act and not an accident. Thus unless there is some reason that the home owner in someway contributed to causing the fight any claim lies between the two parties who were fighting. If the person whose teeth were knocked out did not consent to the fight and was merely defending himself then a claim for compensation could be made against the criminal injuries compensation authority. See the related link entitled "criminal injury" to see the process of claiming criminal injuries compensation.

Will homeowners protect if your sons steaLS FROM visitor?
No. This is an intentional criminal act by a household resident. You insurance will certainly not pay for this claim. Their homeowners insurance will probably pay for the loss of the item after they call the police and press charges against the thief. Does he still have the property he stole from them? If you can't make him responsible them I would say you are personally responsible for their loss.
