The woman told deputies she had told her ex-boyfriend to leave her residence by the time she got off work at 10 p.m. When she arrived home, she found he had locked her out, so she climbed in a window. Once she was inside, she saw the ex-boyfriend crossing her yard. She held the door handle to try to prevent him getting in the house, but he snatched the door open. He grabbed her by both arms and shook her, she said, and as they argued he damaged her television set. She told him she was calling the police and he destroyed her cell phone. She was able to get to a neighbor’s house to call 911 but the ex-boyfriend was gone before deputies arrived.
