Naked man terrorizing Baldwin Park neighborhood
On April 27, the man was captured on surveillance cameras outside a home along Puente Avenue around 11:40 p.m.
As a woman returns home, she parks her car outside, steps out to open a parking gate before getting back into her car and pulling into the driveway.
As she approaches her front door, the naked suspect quickly walks up to her while appearing to touch his private parts. The woman, who did not wish to be identified out of safety concerns, said she was fearing for her life.
'When I turned over, I saw a naked man, so I dug for my keys as fast as I could and I opened the door as quickly as I could,' she told KTLA's Chris Wolfe.
She said she was beyond frightened and could only focus on opening the front door to safety. Finally able to step inside, surveillance cameras showed the naked intruder, who was only wearing a beanie and sneakers, running away from the home.
At least two other women who live along Puente Avenue described similar confrontations with a naked suspect earlier this year.
In February, one woman described a more aggressive encounter. She arrived home from work and pulled into her driveway along Puente Avenue around 4 a.m.
She was sitting in her car and enjoying a snack when she spotted what she initially thought was a jogger, but quickly realized the man was naked except for wearing a dark knit cap on his head.
The man spots her and quickly runs up to the passenger side of her car.
'He tries to open the door,' she recalled. 'I'm just sitting in there and the doors are locked and I'm screaming. It was extremely terrifying. I've never felt so helpless before in my life. It was so scary because it was right outside my house, so now this guy knows where I live and what I look like.'
The victims said the man did not appear to be under the influence of any alcohol or drugs during the frightening confrontations.
The suspect is described as a Hispanic man in his early 20s with a fit build and tan skin. Baldwin Park police believe he may have arrived in the area on a bicycle.
The victims are hoping the man is caught soon before a future confrontation turns violent or even deadly.
'He knows where I live and he knows my car if he came back,' the woman from the April 27 incident said. 'It's really scary.'
Anyone with information on the suspect is urged to call the Baldwin Park Police Department at 626-960-1955.

Ghislaine Maxwell moved to a minimum-security prison camp, authorities say
Jeffrey Epstein's former girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell has been moved to a minimum-security prison camp in Texas, officials have said. is serving a 20-year sentence after being convicted of helping traffic and sexually abuse underage girls in 2021. She was being held at a low-security prison in Tallahassee, Florida, that housed men and women. The federal Bureau of Prisons said on Friday that Maxwell has been transferred to a prison camp in Bryan, Texas, but did not explain the circumstances. Her lawyer confirmed the move but also declined to discuss the reasons for it. The Texas camp houses solely female prisoners, the majority of whom are serving time for nonviolent offences and white-collar crimes, Sky's US partner NBC News reports. Minimum-security federal prison camps house inmates considered to be the lowest security risk and some facilities do not even have fences. A senior administration official told NBC: "Any false assertion this individual was given preferential treatment is absurd. "Prisoners are routinely moved in some instances due to significant safety and danger concerns." Maxwell has received renewed attention in recent weeks, after the US Justice Department said it would not be releasing the so-called 'Epstein files'. The department said a review of the Epstein case had found "no incriminating 'client list'" and "no credible evidence" the jailed financier - who killed himself in prison in 2019 - had blackmailed famous men. Read more: Officials from the Trump administration have since tried to cast themselves as promoting transparency in the case. Last month, they lodged a request to unseal grand jury transcripts - - and Maxwell was last week by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. Epstein survivor's family criticises move Maxwell's move to a lower security facility has been criticised by the family of Epstein abuse survivor Virginia Giuffre, who , and accusers Annie and Maria Farmer. They said in a statement: "It is with horror and outrage that we object to the preferential treatment convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has received. "Ghislaine Maxwell is a sexual predator who physically assaulted minor children on multiple occasions, and she should never be shown any leniency. "Yet, without any notification to the Maxwell victims, the government overnight has moved Maxwell to a minimum security luxury prison in Texas." The statement concluded: "This move smacks of a cover up. The victims deserve better."

Person trying to access Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona fatally shot by security, officials say
Security at Davis-Monthan Air Force Base fatally shot a person Friday trying to illegally access the base just outside of Tucson, Arizona, officials said. Around 2:30 a.m., the suspect, a non-military civilian, failed to stop and identify themselves at the main gate, the Air Force said in a news release. The person was driving erratically, crashed into the deployed vehicle barrier and reversed the vehicle, the release said. A member of the security unit on the base, the 355th Security Forces Squadron, then shot the suspect. "We certainly regret the loss of life that occurred early this morning," Col. Jose Cabrera, the commander of the 355th Wing, said in a statement. "Our Defenders have a very difficult job and acted in accordance with their training and policy to ensure the security of the installation and safety of our Airmen." The base is home to 11,000 airmen from 34 unique mission partners, which support six combatant commanders around the world. It also serves as the retirement setting for some of the nation's most heralded military aircraft.
