Shirtless Intruder Startles Sleeping Montclair Woman

One Montclair woman got a rude awakening Thursday when she was vexed from sleep by a strange man standing at the foot of her bed.

The Pine Street resident called cops just before 5 a.m. on March 20 after being awoken by a thin black male, between 30 to 40 years old, with a mustache, wearing blue jeans and no shirt, according to Montclair cops.

“Are you ready for me?” the unknown man asked.

When the woman replied with a scream, the intruder casually walked out of the apartment, the victim later told police. 

The intruder didn’t get into the bed nor did he touch the woman, cops said. 

The woman believes the back door to her apartment was left open when she went to bed. 

Anyone with any information can contact the Montclair Police Detective Bureau Detective Charles Cunningham at 973.509.4716.
