Ore. burglary suspect caught in victim's underwear

[August 12, 2009]  SALEM, Ore. (AP) -- A burglary suspect confronted inside a garage was arrested wearing only underwear, and police said they weren't even his.

Marion County sheriff's deputies said they responded to a call from a woman late Monday night who said her boyfriend had caught a burglar in their garage and was holding him for police.

Deputies said the man was wearing nothing but the woman's underwear. They later located large garbage bags full of women's clothing, underwear, shoes and accessories in the suspect's garage in the same neighborhood.

Deputies charged a 47-year-old man with burglary, theft, criminal trespass and possession of illegal fireworks.
