The naked break-in

Being nude in someone else's house can lead to some pretty exciting stuff (or so I'm told) but it's usually best if they invite you in first:
Police said a Nixa, Mo., man has been arrested after he allegedly entered his neighbor's house without permission and walked around the empty home in the nude.

Shane Thomas Cargle, 21, was charged with first-degree burglary and resisting arrest after he allegedly entered the house, which his neighbors had recently vacated, and walked around nude before officers arrived to investigate, the Springfield (Mo.) News-Leader reported Tuesday.

Court documents said witnesses dialed 911 and "told dispatch that they did not know how Cargle gained access to the house, but that he was inside the house walking around naked."

Officer Chad Hansen wrote in a probable cause statement that he heard Cargle opening a window in the master bedroom after officers announced themselves outside an unlocked back door.

"I entered in through the rear door to see Cargle running naked through the house, enter into the master bedroom, and close the door behind him," Hansen wrote.
He then shimmied out a window and ran into his house, next door, where the cops later found him hiding in his attic. Shockingly enough, drugs and alcohol were involved.
