Kejonna Levy told Channel 2′s Candace McCowan that she was sleeping in her Buckhead apartment at the Optimist along Piedmont Road Monday night but got up after a bang at her bedroom door.

“I open the door, this guy is standing right here. So, immediately I’m like, ‘Boom,’ punching him,” Levy said.

She said she punched the man about a dozen times. She was ready to hurt him further, but he took off when she grabbed a kitchen knife.

“He’s like ‘the police, the police.’ I’m like, ‘You’re saying police, I’m getting ready to call the police,’” she said.

Atlanta police responded around 11:20 p.m. and searched for the man, but they didn’t find him.

Levy said she is shaken but thankful she didn’t get hurt.

“I was getting ready to kill him, he just ran off before I could get the knife. I spared him this time but there will not be a next time,” she said.

She said her second patio door wasn’t completely locked and officers said that might’ve made it easier to kick it in. Officers helped her secure it.
