A Baltimore County mother reported that a man living in a sewer system near her home in the Lutherville-Timonium area was harassing and chasing her children. Unique Wiggins said her 21-year-old daughter called her one Friday evening frightened, reporting that 'the man in the sewer' had told her she could not walk in that area. Wiggins said her children made similar complaints at least four times before she decided to investigate.

When Wiggins approached the sewer, she heard someone singing. She confronted the man, telling him to leave her children alone. The man responded by saying she should tell her children to leave him alone instead. Wiggins replied that her children could not possibly be bothering him whilst he lived in the sewer.

The man was arrested for trespassing on 13 October and released on his own recognizance. He was served with an interim peace order, which was reissued as a temporary order the following day. The man has not been publicly identified.
