A naked man broke into a home and touched himself in front of a teen before being chased away by the girl. The incident took place in Atlanta, Georgia, on Friday.

Police officers were called to the apartment community off Fairburn Road after a neighbor complained about hearing screaming noises. The neighbor reported to the police that she looked through her window to see her 14-year-old neighbor unclothed and yelling. The unidentified teen was getting ready for school when the incident occurred. The neighbor told the officers that the girl's mother had left for work.

The girl told the police officers that the man broke into the house and was only wearing a Power Ranger mask and nothing else. However, there were no details available about when or how the man broke into the house. She added that she noticed the naked man fondling himself from the corner of her eyes.

The girl told the officers that she felt threatened by his presence and said, “It was either gonna be me or him.” Realizing the danger she was in, the teen girl chased the suspect out of the bedroom and ran to the kitchen to get a knife for self-defense after which the intruder fled the house through the front door.

Traumatized by the event, the victim said, “I can never go to school without feeling like someone is watching me.” She reported that she struggled to fall asleep following the incident. The teen girl’s mother shared a message for the masked intruder stating, “It’s not funny’ it’s not cute, it’s not a joke. Make sure that’s the last time you do that.”

The police described the suspect as an African American man, around 5’6’’ to 5’7’’ tall, weighing approximately 150 to 160 pounds and sporting a small patch of facial hair on the chin. A reward of $2,000 was offered information leading to his arrest.
