Bicycle Fleeing Burglar Reeled In

(Michigan City, IN) - A Michigan City woman returned home to find a burglar who fled on her bicycle.

 

Those are the allegations against Jeremy Teutemacher, who’s charged with burglary, theft and battery.

 

According to court documents, the woman found the man inside her home last month at Tall Timbers Apartment Complex on Springland Ave. on the city’s east side. While confronting the man coming down her stairs, police said he grabbed her by the arms and moved her out of his way.  Teutemacher allegedly fled out the back sliding glass doors and peddled away on her mountain bike.

 

Reported stolen was an Xbox game system, $250 in cash and her late father’s watch.

 

The investigation indicates the suspect has a history of using meth and heroin and possibly traveled to Michigan City by train from New Carlisle where he was living with a girlfriend, according to court documents.
