Residents relieved no-one other than the suspect got hurt, but remain rattled by rampage

Advertisement 2 Article content Chelmsford home invader ‘came in like a bull' Back to video “He came in like a bull,” said Benjamin Finlayson, who occupies the bottom half of a duplex on Main Street in Chelmsford. It was shortly after 11 p.m. and Finlayson had just got his eight-year-old daughter back to sleep. “She went to bed around 8 o'clock but woke up again and wanted me to snuggle with her,” he said. “So I crawled in with her, and 10 minutes later, all hell broke loose.” At first he thought the noises upstairs might be his neighbour getting home after having one too many, even though this wouldn't normally be the housemate's routine. But he quickly realized it was more serious than that, and started fearing for his neighbour's life. “I started hearing banging and smashing of stuff, and then bloodcurdling screams,” he said. “I honestly thought (the upstairs resident) was being stabbed to death.” Advertisement 3 Article content He said his neighbour is usually at home, often with his young daughters, but in this case it luckily turned out that he had gone to his girlfriend's place and the kids were with their mom. “It's a miracle they weren't there,” said Finlayson. The absence of people didn't stop the intruder from making his own mayhem. “I heard this big 200-gallon aquarium up there being smashed, and the water started coming down, and the smoke detector shorted out and started going off.” Finlayson tucked his terrified daughter in a closet, grabbed a big knife from the kitchen, and shoved a dresser and desk in front of his door. “I didn't think it would stop him but might slow him down enough that we could get out the window,” he said. The two were about to slip out in that fashion when police arrived, and told him to stay put. Then the invader attempted his own escape from the floor above, apparently by launching himself through a window. Advertisement 4 Article content Finlayson didn't see this insane act, but encountered the broken glass outside later, along with streaks of blood and a dent in the hood of his truck, where the man seemingly landed. The suspect didn't get far. Greater Sudbury Police said officers were able to quickly apprehend him, based on the description they had received from 911 callers, although he “continued to be uncooperative” during the arrest. He had also “sustained self-inflicted injuries” during the course of the incident, police said, and required medical attention. Paramedics arrived on scene at 11:18 p.m. and transported the individual to hospital, where police said he remained as of Tuesday. While Finlayson and his daughter had the biggest scare, others were earlier freaked out as the man made his way through the neighbourhood. Advertisement 5 Article content Kaitlyn Rivet, who lives a few doors away from Finlayson on Main Street, said she and her boyfriend had gone to sleep around 10 p.m. but were awoken by a banging noise and screams. “There's a little window right beside the bedroom door, and when I peeked out he was standing right there,” she said. “I swear we made eye contact, and I got scared because I thought he saw me, but thankfully I think it was too dark. Because if he had seen me, I think it could have gone differently.” Rivet told her boyfriend to lock all the windows, and each grabbed something to defend themselves. “I had a bat, and he had a hammer,” she said. Meanwhile a man who lives across the street had stepped outside to confront the interloper, and this seemingly caused him to continue further down Main, as well as become more distraught. He skipped the house immediately adjacent to her own, said Rivet, but then smashed a window at the next one. Shortly after that he broke into the house occupied by Finlayson and his daughter, somehow getting through the door. Advertisement 6 Article content The next day Rivet eerily found a footprint on her own door — from a bare foot. “You can see how he back-kicked it,” she said. The sense among residents is that the individual was not so much on a thieving mission as having some kind of mental-health episode, or bad trip, as he was repeatedly calling for help during the rampage. But he was also armed, either with knives or shards of glass, according to witnesses, and perceived as a threat to others, not just himself. Rivet said she is not familiar with the man, nor was anyone else on the street that she had spoken with, although she had learned he was known to police. The impression she got from seeing him through the window was of a young man — probably in his 20s, or 30 at the most. Advertisement 7 Article content Police were not identifying the suspect on Tuesday, pending an appearance in court, but said an arrest warrant had been obtained for him on a slew of charges, including break and enter, possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose, mischief to property, failure to comply with a release order, and breach of probation. Rivet said it was a relief to have the situation resolved, with no members of the public being hurt, but she is still traumatized by the experience and more cautious now, particularly as a parent. “I have four kids who are usually with me, but they just happened to be at their dad's that night,” she said. “Before we used to have fires outside with the kids and stuff, but once dark hits now we're going right inside, and you wake up in the middle of the night to any little noise. I'm more diligent with making sure the windows are locked, and I now sleep with a bat beside my bed.” Advertisement 8 Article content Finlayson said he arranged for his daughter to spend the remainder of that awful night at her grandmother's house in Azilda, while he found a dry corner of the couch to curl up on in his drenched Chelmsford digs, not that he slept much after the ordeal. The next day he washed the blood off his truck, picked up his kid, and took her to his camp on Manitoulin. The girl seems mostly unfazed, he said, at least on the surface. “I tried to shelter her and she didn't see much,” he said. “Everything turned out fine and she got a sticker from a police officer.” At the same time, he knows the incident affected her. She was grasping his hand tightly while she slept the next couple of nights, he said, before returning to her mom's house and resuming school. Advertisement 9 Article content “She's pretty resilient, but we're keeping an eye on her, talking to her,” he said. “We talked to the school, as well, to let the teachers know what she experienced.” For himself, it's hard to stop thinking about what happened, and what might have happened had the man busted into his unit instead of the one above him, or if his neighbour had been home with his little girls. “I'm playing out all the scenarios,” he said. “This kind of thing has made me paranoid as hell. It's made me rethink my home defence strategies — even something like furniture placement, to make it easier to barricade.” Finlayson works as a heavy equipment technician, doing rotational stints at a gold mine in Nunavut, and is fit and tough enough to handle a tense situation, if confronted with one. “If it was just me alone, it probably would have been a fight situation,” he said. “But I've got a little girl, so I had to protect her and think of getting her out. Because this guy was on fire, there was no stopping him. And if I go down, what happens to her?” Article content Share this article in your social network Share this Story : Chelmsford home invader ‘came in like a bull' Comments Join the Conversation Postmedia is committed to maintaining a lively but civil forum for discussion.
