Rochester, MN (KROC AM News) - A Rochester woman locked herself in a room of her apartment Sunday night after hearing someone entering through a window.

The 22-year-old called 911 around 9:30 pm as the person was heard rummaging through her residence at the Timberland Heights Apartments complex located near the Watson sports complex.
