Myron hates his neighbor Thelma because she will not give him the "time of day." Myron had once loved Thelma "from afar" but her continued rejection has made him bitter and filled with bitter resentment. One day Myron decides that he will break into Thelma's home and "cut up her pretty face" while she sleeps as revenge for these continued rejections. One night he breaks into Thelma's home through the back door and enters the kitchen while carrying a very sharp nine-inch buck knife - a "deadly weapon." He intends to maim and disfigure Thelma. Thelma is asleep in an upstairs bedroom. Suddenly he is confronted by Thelma's new guard dog (purchased that day.) The dog (named "Napoleon") is a huge combination of bull mastiff, rottweiler and German Shepard. It growls savagely and gazes at Myron with red eyes. Myron panics and runs out of the house although the dog does not follow. Thelma never wakes up during this entire encounter. Leaving aside any charge for potential Assault, what crime should Myron be charged with in Ohio? Aggravated Trespassing Burglary Aggravated Burglary No crime at all - Myron "Didn't Really do Any Harm
