Boston Police Searching For Serial Tickler
A man being dubbed “The Tickler” is breaking into homes near Boston College an tickling students’ feet.
Victims have described him as a 5-foot-8-inch black male of unknown age in dark clothing and a hoodie, he said. Some reported that the man watched them through their windows as he committed a sex act.
Teddy Raddell, a BC junior, said he was jolted from a sound sleep at 5 a.m. on a Sunday in October by the sound of someone running down the stairs of the house he shares with several fellow Boston College students.
“I thought my roommate had fallen down the steps,” Raddell said, “but then he started yelling. I got up and he said that he had woken up to someone touching his feet.”
Like other students, he said no valuables were stolen.
There are no leads at this time.
