WOODSTOCK, GA (CBS ATLANTA) -
A Woodstock woman said she got the feeling her neighbor was watching her.
Noelle Kozar said Craig Landrum would stop and stare without saying anything but then things got stranger.
Landrum was caught peeping into her home, she said.
"He basically was right on his hands and knees, peeped his head in," Kozar said.
Kozar said Landrum, who lives right behind her, was on her patio in his pajamas peering into her home at about 1 a.m.
"It's very creepy, very scary," Kozar said.
Luckily Kozar said she wasn't home, but unlucky for Landrum her boyfriend was.
"I'm in the kitchen and I see a man's face outside my glass door," Keith Hirsch said.
Hirsch jumped into action.
"For two years I was a deputy sheriff," Hirsch said.
He pinned Landrum to the ground and called police.
"He was kind of a deer in the headlights once I confronted him. I guess he didn't expect that. I'm sure he didn't expect to be held in place. He thought he'd just walk away," Hirsch said.
The couple said when police showed up Landrum had plenty of stories.
"He said he was drunk, all these excuses, then he said he was trying to get up on our deck to look into his house," Kozar said.
Landrum bonded out of jail, but no one at his home would talk about what happened.
Kozar and her boyfriend are still on edge.
"We put up vertical blinds, motion light, locks on the gate and we are getting a dog," Kozar said.
