Living in fear

A masked man described as fast and “tricky” has been terrorizing residents of Marley Vale, St Philip, for the past three weeks.
Residents told the SATURDAY SUN that the tall man who wears black clothing with a hood over his head has been pulling at their doors and windows late at night and even hiding in their cellars. It is also reported that he snatched a woman’s handbag.
The situation has the community in an uproar – women are unable to sleep at night and the men hold vigils, hoping to capture the elusive intruder.
More than anyone else, Janice Best, who lives with her two young children, has seen the masked assailant, who constantly targets her house. (MB)
