HOBE SOUND, Fla. (CBS12) \u2014 A Washington, D.C. woman faces charges after allegedly breaking into two Hobe Sound homes, including one that was occupied.<\/p>\n

According to the Martin County Sheriff\u2019s Office<\/a>, the burglaries occurred Tuesday. In the occupied home near SE Federal Highway, the victim said a woman entered while they were inside and struggled with her while trying to take a dog crate with the homeowner\u2019s dog inside.<\/p>\n

The sheriff\u2019s office says the homeowner was able to get her to release the crate before she fled the scene. The dog was not injured.<\/p>\n
