Tenant/Roommate Safety

Hello Everyone,

I have a scenario that I am not sure how to approach.

I have a group of three individuals living together, the investors son picked the two roommates and I manage the home. One of the roommates has turned out to be an alcoholic who likes to party late and have guest stay over frequently, he is not necessarily the most cleanliness either. I do have a pretty detailed lease stating housing regulations with roommates, and also had an addendum signed re stating the rules and how I will be enforcing them.

But there is more to it, the individual had a friend over, whom barged into the females room while she was sleeping asking for a ride home, and on another occasion I was also told the problematic roommate was drunk walking around the home with JUST a shirt on, with all the goods hanging out. I am actually concerned for the safety of the other two roommates, especially the female. 

Can I issue an eviction notice for safety concerns, this is the first place I am starting to get some feedback.
