A security guard had seen Mendez in the garage, and he was spotted and stopped a short time later on the bicycle, the report said.
When he was stopped, he had a glass pipe and several tools consistent with items used for burglaries and to cut bike locks, the reports said.
After he was taken into custody, the teen from Saturday's incident identified him in a photo lineup as the man who'd been watching her shower, the reports said.
