Naked burglar arrested after drinking alcohol in hot tub

The homeowners were not amused.

POLICE NEAR SALEM in Oregon arrested a naked man after he broke into two homes, drank alcohol and used a hot tub at one of the houses.

Officers received a 911 call early on Sunday from a woman who was house-sitting when she was awakened by noises coming from the laundry room.

As she went to check it out, the room door slammed, so she grabbed a knife and called police and her husband.

Police found the burglar inside, naked, and arrested him without incident. Investigators determined that he climbed in through a back window after removing a screen.

They also noticed that screens had been removed from windows at a neighbor’s home. Police say the suspect had burglarized that home, drinking the homeowner’s alcohol and using the hot tub and shower.
