A resident of Elliotsville Road in Athens returned home about 9 p.m. Nov. 29 to find a person exiting a rear window of the residence, according to a Facebook post from Athens County Sheriff Pat Kelly.
A juvenile who was with the owner called 911 as the resident chased the male perpetrator into the woods behind the residence, according to the post.
