After a number of unsuccessful attempts, he ran off on SW 69th Court.

The homeowner told investigators she realized someone tried to get into her home when she reviewed her surveillance tapes later that morning.

Officers are asking anyone who recognizes him to call Miami-Dade Crimestoppers at (305) 471-TIPS.
