A New York City police report says an intruder broke into the home of the consul general of the United Arab Emirates but ran away without taking anything.
Majid Al Suwaidi woke up on Monday morning to a noise in his apartment and saw his bedroom door open. According to the report, he chased the fleeing man.
Al Suwaidi was not injured. Officers made a sketch of the suspect, who was wearing a black hood, black waist-length coat and dark shoes.
Detectives were looking for any surveillance video. The home is in the heart of Greenwich Village, near such famous landmarks as the Stonewall Inn.
Al Suwaidi was appointed in September 2015 and is an expert in international negotiations. A message left with the consulate was not immediately returned.
