Man pleads not guilty to burglary

A 31-year-old woman woke up to a disturbing sight recently, a man standing in her bedroom in only his underpants.

Pleading not guilty to burglary in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court on Friday was a 32-year-old, unemployed man of a Kingston 3 address.

According to reports, on October 27, the complainant secured her house where she resides with her two children aged 11 and six and went to bed.

When she woke, she saw the accused standing at her bedroom door in only his underpants.

She reportedly asked him what he was doing in her house and he allegedly pulled the door and ran.

The police later captured him.

According to reports, when he was asked why he was at the complainant's house, he stated that he wanted to speak to her.

The complainant later discovered that the accused entered her house through a window to the front of the house that was forced open.

She did not find anything missing from her house.

The accused is to return to court for mention later this month.
