"What happens folks tend to get overheated they want to take off their clothes and they are seeing things and hearing this that we just don't understand. At that point they will try to break in for a variety of reasons we don't know what the deal is what was chasing the man, but we got a lot of work to do in our investigation still, but this neighborhood is safe and we're going to get it back to normal here as quickly as possible," said Captain Burke Farrah of the Fresno Police Department.
Witnesses say the suspect broke into a couple homes in the neighborhood.
Police are still looking to see if any property was stolen.
