EAST WILLIAMSBURG — A couple awoke last week to find a intruder inside their home, lurking near their bedroom, police said.
The husband, 44, told police that he and his wife were sleeping in their apartment on Judge Street near Powers Street around 1:50 a.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 8, when they woke up to the sound of an intruder and saw a shadow near their bedroom door.
When the husband went to investigate, he saw a 6-foot-tall man on his fire escape, police said.
The suspect then jumped a fence in the backyard and fled, police said.
No property was taken.
