Newark Police arrested a 39-year-old Wilmington man Tuesday after he entered a home on Choate Street and stole lingerie from a female University of Delaware student’s bedroom, police said.
Police used a Taser to apprehend Sean Maas after he allegedly entered a first-floor window of the home and removed women’s clothing and lingerie from the 21-year-old student’s bedroom, said Newark Police spokesman Lt. Mark Farrall.
Farrall confirmed Wednesday that Dr. Sean Maas works as a chiropractor in Wilmington. According to a web page for his business, based on Foulk Road in Wilmington, Maas is also a coach for the Concord Soccer Association in Delaware.
Farrall said police do not believe Maas knew the victim. The victim was home at the time of the incident, but was not in the bedroom when Maas allegedly removed the lingerie and other items from the room, Farrall said.
Around 1:30 a.m. Tuesday, a citizen called police to report a man crouching near a first-floor window of a home on the unit block of Choate Street, Farrall said.
Several officers converged on the area and found a man that matched the description the caller had given walking in the City of Newark Parking Lot 4 near Choate Street, he said.
As the officers approached the man, later identified as Maas, they noticed women’s lingerie hanging from his waistband, Farrall said. When an officer tried to take Maas into custody for questioning, Maas ran.
The officer ran after him and deployed his Taser device after Maas refused to stop. The Taser prongs struck Maas in the back, causing him to fall onto the asphalt. Police then took Maas into custody without further incident. He sustained abrasions to his face and a broken tooth as a result of the fall. Emergency personnel transported him to Christiana Hospital, where he was treated and then released back into police custody.
An investigation determined that Maas had entered the Choate Street home where he was first observed through an unsecured first-floor window and, once inside, had removed women’s clothing and lingerie from the female victim’s unoccupied bedroom.
Maas was charged with one count each of second-degree burglary, theft under $1,500, trespassing with the intent to peep or peer, and resisting arrest. He was released on $8,000 unsecured bail.
