Very scary, but glad all is okay. Can you put a stick in that window so it can't be pried open? Makes you want to put bars on all ground floor windows. Its a shame we have to feel like prisoners in our own homes.

Something similar happened to my girlfriend. She lives in a ground floor condo adjacent to a park. There was a festival going on at the park. My GF locked up and set the alarm when we left. About an hour later, we came back and there were two Sheriff's deputies standing next to the door. They checked everything out. Her kitchen window has the alarm set up so she can leave the window open a few inches while the alarm is set. Someone removed the screen and tried to open the window, which set off the alarm. In their haste, they put the screen back on backwards. One of the deputies caught that.
