NEIGHBOR ACCUSED OF INDECENT EXPOSURE

 

Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey has formally charged a man accused of entering a neighbor’s apartment without permission and exposing himself.  A man and his three year old daughter were home watching television at the time.

 

Thomas Cape (DOB: 01-16-65) is charged with second degree burglary (F3) and indecent exposure (M1).

 

The charges allege that on June 11, 2005 Cape opened a neighbor’s screen door and entered the residence with his pants pulled down around his ankles, no shirt, and a cup in his hand.  He later indicated he had wanted to borrow a cigarette.  He fled but was arrested nearby a short time later.

 

Cape remains in custody in the Denver County Jail.  His bond has been set at $10,000.  He is scheduled to be formally advised of the charges on June 17, 2005 in Denver County Court, room 12T.
