One man was arrested after an attempted home invasion in Oakland County, Michigan, the Bloomfield Township Police Department reported.

When police arrived on scene, they found the suspect still on the front porch of the home. A knife was found on a window ledge near the front door. There was visible damage to the front door and its jam.
The suspect, later identified as Peter Chan-Woong Chung, 37, of Birmingham, was placed under arrest for attempted home invasion-first degree. Chung had an arraignment hearing Sunday, where bond was set at $25,000 cash/surety/10%. He is due back in court July 3.
Over $1,000 in property damage resulted from the incident, the report said.
