Chilling note prowler left stuck on single mum’s window

A single mum has had a terrifying ordeal with a prowler creeping around her home before leaving a terrifying note for her young daughter.

A prowler crept around a single mum’s home and peered into her window for almost an hour before she was alerted by a neighbour in a terrifying ordeal.

Jasena Kiriona, from New Zealand, warned her friends on Facebook of a “sick pervert”.

The terrifying incident happened on Saturday evening when her neighbour’s landlord rang her.

At the time, the single mother of two young children was cleaning the kitchen.

“I don’t want to scare you but lock your door right now my tenants next door are watching a man and he’s watching you in your kitchen window,” the caller said, according to Ms Kiriona.

The single mum quickly grabbed a knife, locked the door and automatically went into “mama bear mode”.

“I grabbed my babies and made sure we were all safe while talking to police,” she wrote.

The creepy man continued to watch her while she was on the phone to the police.

The man, according to Ms Kiriona, hid in a bush when officers arrived and managed to escape by running towards the road.

While there was no permanent damage to the woman’s property, a creepy note was left on the woman’s window for her young daughter saying: “Hey cutie, what’s your number?”

Ms Kiriona wrote it had left her daughter “traumatised”.

“How dare you!,” she wrote.

“This has been such a scary experience for me and my babies,” she wrote.

“I don’t even feel safe opening my windows. Luckily I have family here now in case he decides to come back. I hope no one else experiences this.”

The whole terrifying incident was caught on Ms Kiriona’s security cameras.

She later told the New Zealand Herald that she tried not to look scared during the whole experience.

She said her daughter was still so freaked out that she is staying with relatives. She had also borrowed her grandfather’s dog to guard the property, and her friends and family had been in and out of the house.

“I’m just lucky the video caught him because if I tried to tell people about this they wouldn’t believe me. It’s like something out of a movie,” she said.

Ms Kiriona said she recommended that solo mothers or “anyone who doesn’t have much protection” invest in cameras with motion detection and phone alert functions.

“I want to tell them to shut their windows. It’s been hot. Turn the aircon on,” Ms Kiriona said. “I don’t want another mother to have to go through this.”

New Zealand police said a report had been received in relation to the incident.

“Police have made a number of inquiries to identify the man responsible and these inquiries are ongoing,” the spokesman said.
