In all occasions, the homeowners were present at the time and encountered the suspect.
Police say that in two of the reported incidents, the man supposedly made non-sexual physical contact with female residents before fleeing, possibly on a bicycle.
In the six other instances, the man reportedly fled after being confronted by the homeowners.
Thankfully, no one was injured and nothing was stolen during any of the incidents.
