4200 Chula Senda Lane in La Cañada Flintridge, while a resident was asleep in his home he woke up to the sound of someone going through the drawers in his kitchen. He thought it was a family member and went back to sleep. Minutes later he woke up to see a person, dressed in all black wearing a black beanie, standing at his opened bedroom door. The person had a flashlight turned on and pointed toward the resident. The suspect made a “startled noise” and ran out of the bedroom. The resident got out of his bed and chased the suspect out of his home through the back door. The suspect ran to the front of the property and entered the front passenger side of a black Volvo vehicle that was parked in front of the residence’s driveway.
