The Fridley Police Department and the Anoka County Sheriff's Office are investigating two home invasions in the past two weeks.
First:
In the first report, homeowner Evelyn Cooper told police she awoke to find a suspect in her bedroom during the early hours of Sept. 29.

"I kept looking at him. I couldn't see his face, I think he didn't want me to know who he was," Cooper said.

Second:
On Monday, a homeowner was awakened by the sound of her screen door opening shortly before 2 a.m. She went to investigate and could hear her 8-year-old daughter yelling.

The mother ran outside yelling to her child and found the child several town homes away. The child reported that a man had entered her room and taken her outside. The suspect had run off when the mother called to her child.

This story is accompanied by a reminder to lock your doors and windows at night.
