There was this creepy man yesterday around age 40-50. He was fat, with a backwards baseball cap and sunglasses. He had two small dogs with him. I have a fairly large yard. So he walks into my driveway, crouches down, then walks across my lawn and crouches down again. He continued to inspect my front yard for about 5 minutes, then he walked into my backyard and looked around back there. He kept closely inspecting my house/property for around 12 minutes. Until he walked into the forest that my property backs onto. My sister got a picture of him, he was not one of my neighbours, we did not know him. At the time there were no cars in our driveway so he must have thought no one was home.

Could he be planning to break into my house? Has any one else had any experiences with prowlers/trespassers?

And you didn't go out and ask him what he was doing? I've seen people on my property before, and i've gone out there and asked them what they are doing. If they are there for something they shouldn't be, i'll just let my dogs eat them. :P

Should have gone all Clint Eastwood on him and told him to get off your lawn.

You should have gone and stared at him in a creepy way through a clearly visible window.

I would have gone out and asked him if I could help him with something. Who knows what he was doing.

He was probably hoping his dogs would take a crap in your yard, so he wouldn't have to clean it up.

Was this during the day? You should have stuck your head outside and asked him what he was doing...or told him to f*** off, depending on how polite you are.

It's possible I guess. Don't know if your home has a Homeowners Association that requires a certain amount of maintenance and upkeep on your property, but that's another possible explanation. Another possible explanation could simply be that he was looking for something. If you're really concerned, I'd send the picture you took to the police.

Just a random story...speaking of HOA, I got put on my neighborhood's HOA watch list just because I was going for a walk. They said they thought I was breaking into homes (in my own neighborhood) because I was texting..... :lol:

If it was in the middle of the day, you should have told him off. What is rather creepy about it is how he left into the woods.

That sucks. HOA's can be a bit of a blessing and a curse. On the one hand, it is kind of nice that they make everyone take care of their own damn property so the value of MINE doesn't plummet along with agree to some basic common courtesy items, but on the other hand if you get yourself an anal or paranoid HOA board they can really be a pain.

They were so embarrassed by stupidly accusing me of breaking into homes (this is a wealthy neighborhood so the there's a lot of busy bodies that don't work) that the neighborhood watch program disbanded! :lol:

Well, if he's fat then I doubt he's going to break into your house.

a guy was tresspassing in my driveway last thursday (in the daytime) and on friday night my car was broken into.

I had a spare set of my house keys in the glove box and they were stolen. So I spent the day saturday changing all the locks to my house.

I'd report it to the police just to be safe, people you don't know shouldn't be so interested in you house and property.

If he's REALLY fat then even a barricaded door won't stop him.

He just needs to get up a decent speed and let his kinetic energy do the rest.

He had his on a short leash the whole time, the dogs could not have gotten that far up onto my lawn/backyard to poop.

I live in a wierd neighborhood, and I've had this happen multiple times as well as having people peep through the windows (imagine that when you're watching a scary movie at night...). I don't know if you have any weapons of some sort, but my Mosin Nagant from Cabela's hasn't failed me yet. Seems people answer any questions when you have a rifle in you hands...
