“Dear PoPville,

He decided to pick the lock at our back door, walk up the stairs, and enter my bedroom. He walked past my dresser with valuables that could have easily stolen and when I woke up, he began to apologize and ran. (more…)

The bartender repeated asked me if I was ok and I signaled no – they had security escort him out. I was so thankful to the manager there for making sure I was ok. When I walked out of the bar about an hour later the guy followed me down U Street. He had been waiting for me. Luckily one of the guys on the Sudhouse patio noticed this go down and walked me back to bar and away from this creep. (more…)
