A woman reported that someone was watching her shower through her bathroom window Friday night, but police determined Monday that it was likely a 12-year-old boy who lives next door in her Tompkins Street duplex.
According to reports, the 27-year-old woman heard scratching and breathing outside the second-floor bathroom window when she got out of the shower at 11:30 p.m. When she looked out at the porch roof, she didn’t see anyone, but she heard someone scrambling in the bathroom of the unit next door.
Police investigated the scene Monday morning and found a handprint on the window that they suspect is from a child, based on its size. The woman said a 12-year-old boy lives next door with his uncle. Police listed the child as a person of interest, but the woman said it would be better if she spoke with the boy’s uncle rather than get police involved.
