A Boro Park homeowner was terrified to find a man armed with a large knife in his kitchen this past Friday night.
Boro Park Shomrim say the incident occurred at around 12:30AM on Friday night / Shabbos morning in the vicinity of 11th Ave and 54th Street.
The homeowner was awakened by a noise in his house, and went to see what it was, when he came face-to-face with the man seen in the attached footage.
Thankfully, the perpetrator fled the home without harming him.

hes clearly drunk and doesnt even have any shoes on
I would think a burglar would take off his shoes as to not make noise. The photo is clear enough so that if he is a recidivist the cops from the 66 Precinct should recognize him. Burglars like to work in areas that they are familiar with.
I wonder if in this instance unlocked doors or windows made for easy entry.
Two things I keep next to my bed a fire extinguisher and a bat

You expected NYPD to be standing at his front door, and yours and your parents and your in-laws? Not everything should be blamed on another!
