STUART - STUART - Police say a 30-year-old Stuart man took off his clothes, broke into a home and fled in shorts belonging to the female resident.

The woman who lives at the home says a man, identified by authorities as Alejandro Mejias Ramirez, woke her up Saturday night by banging on her front door. She called 911 after he broke in through her second-floor balcony.

When a deputy arrived, he found a bicycle on the ground behind the house. He also found pants and underwear on the balcony floor.
