A man suspected of burglarizing a home was arrested after police found him asleep in the basement. Iam D. Wright was lying on the floor early Thursday next to a black bag filled with items that belonged to the homeowners, including stereo equipment, a backpack and a wallet, police said.
One of the residents had flagged down nearby officers after discovering a man in their basement.
Wright's eyes were closed and he did not respond to police until he was threatened with a Taser.
He allegedly told police he was drunk and had passed out after a party at the home, but the homeowners said they hadn't hosted a party.
Wright is charged with felony theft and burglary and remains jailed on $2,500 bail.
Police found other items on Wright that didn't belong to the couple, and say he may be responsible for other burglaries and thefts in the area.
