A woman says she was sleeping on her sofa when she awoke to find a stranger in her house, talking to her four-month-old baby boy.

The suspect ran out the back door, Hurst said.
The woman is described as approximately 35 years old, with dark hair and a medium build.
She was also wearing a red hooded sweatshirt at the time of the incident
Police continue to search the area around McEwan Valley Road in the northwest.
