Police said a Madison man was arrested for disorderly conduct and resisting or obstructing an officer during an attempted break-in on East Johnson Street early Sunday morning.
According to the police report, 25-year old Jeremy Campbell tried to enter a residence on the 100 block of East Johnson Street around 4:30 a.m.
The apartment owner, a 22-year-old female, awoke and reported hearing someone trying to enter her apartment through the front door, police said.
According to the incident report, the woman saw Campbell looking through her windows and called the police. Campbell proceeded to look through the windows of other apartments before police arrived.
When police reached the property, Campbell fled to adjoining backyards and was arrested. He told police he was trying to find a party at his friend's house.
Campbell told officers he had mistaken them for his friends and thought they were trying to play a game with flashlights, police said.
