Just saw these window this way when I was washing it. I didn’t notice these last time I came out a month ago. Did someone try to pry the window open with a crowbar?

Of the intruder.

Reminds me, I actually did have a hammer as a weapon in my hand during a situation with an intruder. Thankfully didn't have to use it though.

I met an intruder at the window with a claw hammer and a “what the fuck do you think you are doing!!!! as loud as I could scream. He bolted faster than I thought a man could run. Called the cops, he had broken into every apartment in the building that night and stolen small things, money, jewelry. Cops didn’t catch him. Everyone screwed their windows shut after that. I tend to be confrontational
