A 20-year-old Levittown man was arrested Thursday after he entered an occupied home in Bristol Township, police said.
Michael Duffy is accused of entering a home in the 100 block of Red Cedar Drive Thursday around 1:20 p.m. A woman living in the home heard a noise and went to the sunroom. She saw a leg going through the door in the room, police said.

The woman pushed a kitchen table to block a door and then saw Duffy enter the sunroom, police said. Duffy ran when he saw the woman, court papers say.
Duffy then was spotted outside of the home pacing. He eventually went into the street and tried to flag down a burgundy car, police said. Officers quickly arrived and took the 20-year-old into custody nearby.
Court paperwork does not state whether the burgundy car was stopped or is believed to be a getaway vehicle.

The woman showed police where Duffy broke a screen and board that was on the sunroom door, according to court documents.
Duffy was charged with criminal trespassing and criminal mischief. He was arraigned before District Judge Robert Wagner Jr. Thursday afternoon and sent to county jail on 10 percent of $100,000 bail.
