The 36-year-old female homeowner and her 3-year-old son had pulled into the driveway of their Kings Highway home at about 8:50 p.m. after returning from a family function when she observed a male with a dark hoodie standing in her living room, Clarkstown Police said.

The suspect saw her and appeared to move quickly from the window to the rear of the home, police added.

The mother and son then went back into their car and awaited the police.

Responding patrol units began an immediate and extensive search of both the interior and exterior of the home, utilizing multiple officers and K-9 units. No suspect was located.
