A teenage girl was the victim of a home invasion and assault at around 5:54 p.m. Monday evening at her south Main Street home.
The details:
The female, 17, was home alone at waiting for a dad when according to police reports, she heard the door open and close.
She called out asking if she could go to the YMCA, thinking it was her dad, but when she got no answer she got up and went to the kitchen to see a man wearing a ski mask and holding a knife.
The girl screamed at which time the intruder reportedly charged her and knocked her to the ground. During the ensuing the struggle, the girl’s shirt was ripped and the knife cut her right cheek.
The man also allegedly choked her and punched her in the face.
Parents, teach your children to lock the doors. It is the easiest line of defense.
The girl eventually escaped the man and ran for a side door of the home. Once outside, the girl told police that she observed a Hispanic male, approximately 30 years of age, 5-8 with shaved head and wearing a gray hooded shirt and black pants standing near the back door. The girl ran to the Moose Lodge where she called for help. Both men were gone when police arrived.
According to police the incident seems random, and the investigation is on-going.
Two thugs picked a house at random and assaulted the teenager home alone. I'm glad she escaped.
