Police said Tcaciuc matched the description of the suspect, so they detained him, but he was fully clothed at the time and was released at the scene.
According to the report, officers went back to the building nearly two hours later after a woman reported that an unknown nude white man came into her apartment while she was sleeping.
The victim said that her husband had left the apartment earlier, leaving the front door unlocked, while she stayed home with her 3-year-old son sleeping on the living room couch.
According to the arrest report, the woman said she then heard a loud noise coming from the front door and woke up.
That’s when she found the naked man standing inside the apartment by the front door, holding some kind of objects in his hands, the arrest report stated.
According to the report, the woman started to scream as she was “in fear for her life” and her son’s. The man then left the apartment and fled the building, according to the report.
Police said the woman then called the front desk to tell them about the incident, and asked that they call the police, according to the arrest report.
Police spoke with the front desk employee, who told police that they gave the man clothing, and he left, walking westbound across Collins Avenue from 164th Street, it states. The employee told police that the man was now wearing blue pants and a gray hoodie, according to the arrest report.
The investigation led police to 16500 Collins Avenue, where the front desk recognized the man fitting the description and provided officers with his room number, the report stated.
Police made their way to the room and spoke with Tcaciuc, who they said voluntarily went downstairs to the valet area with police.
The woman later identified Tcaciuc as the man who entered her apartment in a show-up.
According to the arrest report, Tcaciuc was arrested and transported to the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.
Tcaciuc faces two charges: one count of felony burglary of an occupied dwelling and one count of misdemeanor indecent exposure.
As of Monday, Tcaciuc was no longer showing up in the jail database.
