Looks like an assassin bug (Reduviidae).

Can be considered a beneficial insect.

Do you want to run to a future left behind?
I remember asking why, there lies aggression.
Separation where there should be love
Power plays while the people die
Let it rain and protect us from this cruel sun

Re: Have you seen this bug?
I was thinking that it could be an assassin bug too but it didn't seem to have the proboscis. I had planned on just keeping an eye on him to see what he would do but the wife found him and didn't like the looks of him... squish..
