Details

     Two roommates, both college students, joked there might be someone in their apartment when they heard noises inside their W. Mifflin St. home around 9:20 p.m. last night.
     Shortly thereafter, one spotted an intruder inside a bedroom.
     The women ran outside while calling 911.
    The burglar fled before police arrived after stealing a wallet.
     It was determined he entered the residence by removing a window screen, positioning a plastic chair outside of the open window, and climbing through.
