was actually the sound of a rock being thrown through my window & after I ran off screaming like the witch in L4D, the perp felt he needed a bigger hole to utilize in his attempt at breaking & entering my homestead. So, he picked up the biggest pine cone he could find in my yard & threw it with full force through my window. Within seconds of the 2nd "explosion" my son hit the defcon police button on my house alarm that sounded immediately.
Police responded, report written, Ms. Red is still shaking. The perp was scoping the house before his attempt at B & E because my son said he was banging on the door & ringing the bell. We don't answer the front door here for anyone we don't recognize. My son looked out & observed the perp going through our mail. About 10 minutes later the "explosion" in my room took place.
Question for y'all who have been through this kind of situation and more: How can I make my house show that I am in fact occupying it or appear that I am home? If this perp attempted this last week (when I was in work training classes) he would have been able to enter my bedroom & not be noticed until he exited my bedroom upon which his body warmth would set off my motion detector.
I need some ideas anyone has of alerting people that I have a house alarm with a motion detector that calls the local police. Nowadays slapping a sticker on your windows with your alarm company doesn't do the trick. I had that on my window. That sticker was smashed/sliced into bits with the perps attempt to get into my house.
