A homeless man with a prior rap sheet was arrested after attempting to break into a woman’s New York City home early Saturday morning, police and sources said.
Authorities identified the suspect as 27-year-old Ulysses Lucero.
The incident occurred around 4 a.m. in the Alphabet City section of Manhattan, according to police.
Someone called 911 to report an active burglary in progress near the intersection of Avenue B and East 7th Street.
A 56-year-old woman lives inside the residence, police said.
Officers responded to the scene and took Lucero into custody.
Lucero was charged with sexually motivated burglary, cops said.
The charge is levied when an individual commits a burglary for sexual gratification.
Yet it was not clear if Lucero did anything to the woman during the incident, police said.
Police sources stated that the suspect has an extensive criminal history.
Lucero has more than 20 prior arrests on his record, according to police sources.

And as of Saturday evening, Lucero’s arraignment remained pending.
The charges are allegations and have not been proven in court.
