Man caught on camera throwing log at Land Park home's front window

De Necochea's family dialed 911 and police officers arrived minutes later. However, they did not file charges because there was no damage to the house.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A Sacramento family is shaken after a man showed up on their front doorstep and threw a log at their window. 

The incident, which happened at 4:30 a.m. on July 8, was caught on Mike de Necochea's surveillance camera at his Land Park home.

"That window, I'm going to tell you right now, I don't know how it didn't break," de Necochea said. 

It all began when the man started ringing the doorbell. 

De Necochea, with a baseball bat in hand, asked him to leave, but the man refused, arguing with him but not making sense. 

"He told me he was turning pink, and we knew he was pretty jacked up on something, that he had a crazy look in his eyes and he was just unpredictable," de Necochea said. 

De Necochea's family dialed 911 and police officers arrived minutes later. However, they did not file charges because there was no damage to the house. 

De Necochea now said he regrets that his family didn't push harder for criminal charges to hold him accountable. 

"The psychological damage, the feeling of the family, for someone to do that to your home, I'll tell you right now, that's damage," he said. 

He worries that the man could still be on the street, so to neighbors, he says: lock your doors and keep your cameras rolling.
