Calif. homeowner discovers nude man under bed

[September 30, 2010]  WESTMINSTER, Calif. (AP) -- Authorities in Orange County are searching for a burglary suspect found nude under a bed by a homeowner.

Westminster police said the suspect repeatedly apologized and put on his pants after he was discovered early Saturday. The man told the homeowner he was on drugs and ran from the house shirtless and wearing khaki pants, City News Service reported.

The homeowner told police he discovered the stranger when he heard "rustling sounds" coming from under the bed.

Police determined the suspect got into the house by using a ladder found in a side yard to climb through a second-story window.
