Apartment intruder faces rape and burglary charges By GLENN E.

The woman screamed and fought with the attacker, police said. The noise alerted her roommate in another part of the apartment. She ran into the room and tried to pull the attacker off the other woman, but failed. The roommate then ran to the balcony and called police with a cordless phone.
