A 22-year-old Madison woman had an unanticipated and scary study break late Saturday evening.
According to a Madison Police Department incident report:
The victim had been studying when she heard pounding on the door followed by broken glass. The noises were followed by the sound of a man’s voice, and she discovered her window had been shattered in two places.
Worried about the prospect of an intruder, the resident fled her apartment while neighbors called 911. A witness was able to identify a suspect, and he was found nearby with significant cuts on his arm.
The suspect received medical care before police took him to jail on charges of attempted burglary and criminal damage to property.
