That IS scary and I'm so glad you're ok...I don't even want to think of the outcome if you hadn't have been there...
but then also - it
could have been dangerous for you by being home. What a close call !!
A similar thing happened next door to me - their dogs alerted them to the guy climbing the fence and it was 11 AM too...the cops took one guy down right on the Spy Girls fence...they had lots to spy on that day...
