Another Attempt to Break In
Jan. 13th, 2006 10:54 amYesterday morning, on returning from the swimming pool, I ran into a pair of police officers coming out of my building. They had a woman with them, from the basement floor, who climbed into their van and drove away with them. I thought she might have called them because of the man with epilepsy who lives in my building (though I never stopped to consider why she would need to go to the police station with them.)
Today, Natalia told me that she ran into these same police officers yesterday (probably when they were arriving) and they asked her if she had heard anything suspicious: someone had tried to break into our building again.
This made me realize that, on leaving the building to go to the swimming pool, I noticed a young man standing by our door, talking on his mobile phone. As I opened the door, he turned his body away from me so I couldn't see his face. I wonder if it was him? I was suspicious at the time, and I remember turning around to check whether he would sneak through the door I had just left open (one of those doors that automatically closes behind you and locks itself.) He didn't sneak in then, but I wonder if he then tried to get in through other means.
