PORTLAND, Ore. - Washington County Sheriff's Deputies made an easy burglary arrest last Friday when they found a man asleep inside the home he allegedly broke into.
Deputies said they got a call about a burglary just before 5 a.m. from a home in the Rock Creek area and arrived to find Cristian Villarreal-Castillo, 20, asleep on the kitchen floor.
The home had been ransacked and deputies said items they found in Villarreal-Castillo's possession connected him to another burglary that took place a few hours before he was arrested.
Electronics found in Villarreal-Castillo's pants may have been taken from unlocked vehicles, deputies added.
Deputies said Villarreal-Castillo apparently got into the homes through unlocked doors.
They said it appears Villarreal-Castillo dozed off while burglarizing the home.
Villarreal-Castillo was taken to the Washington County Jail and charged with two counts of burglary, attempted theft, trespassing, and criminal mischief. His bail was set at $100,000.
He may face more charges as the investigation goes on, deputies said.
