Who was that masked man

Clearwater, Florida - A woman in Pinellas County, Florida woke up one morning recently to find a “masked” intruder in her bedroom. She, of course, called the cops. But, explains the Association of Mature American Citizens, he didn’t mean her any harm. He probably was looking for something to eat as raccoons tend to do.
