One of the victims, a 73-year-old woman, said the naked man tickled her toes and then ran out of the house.

"This is truly a bizarre case," Local 6 News reporter Tarik Minor said. "A naked man is breaking into elderly women's homes, hiding at the foot of their beds, pulling back their covers and tickling their feet and running away."

Police are worried that the man is enjoying the shock value factor of tickling the elderly women and will continue the attacks.

"It's terribly shocking," neighbor Mary Oliver said. "I think about it and a couple of times I woke up and couldn't help looking down to the foot of the bed and wondering if somebody is there ready to play with my toes. It's funny but it's not funny."

Investigators believe the tickler lives in New Smyrna Beach but they do not have a good description of the man.

The same man is suspected of breaking into homes last summer and tickling elderly women, according to the report.

Police are warning residents to be alert and take precautions to secure windows and doors.

If you have any information concerning this crime, you are urged to call Crimeline at (800) 423-TIPS.
