At 2:08 p.m. Thursday, a woman called 911 Dispatch reporting an intruder in her house when she came home. The Putnam County Sheriff's Department responded to the call at 3541 S. CR 200 West (Manhattan Road).

  • lets all keep a watchful eye for any suspicous activity in our neighborhoods. we need to protect ourselves and our neighbors and let the law enforcement officers know of any thing that looks out of the ordinary. lets catch these low lifes!

  • When this creep is cought, just turn him over to the family of the victim. Justice would be served in 5 minutes!

  • Be aware of your .envirment.and secure your home-sensor lights-dead bolts-look around before you enter or leave your home-take all precautions-I have been on my guard-not everything is in paper-I have had gas stolen twice-now have lock cap. Everyone stay safe.

  • Xgamer, you're more right than you know. This terrible incident should never have happened, and I pity the soul of the perpetrator.

  • you never know. times are hard. you have to protect yourself be being aware of your environment. even when out and about doing normal routines. when coming home to an empty house look to see if anything seems out of place. leave lights on in house during the day if it is empty. we leave out tv on too.
