A sleeping couple found a man had climbed in a window and went to sleep in a bed in their home near Ruston Saturday morning.
The Lincoln Parish Sheriff’s Office was called to a Havins Avenue residence about 2:30 a.m. Saturday morning after a man and his wife found a man in one of their beds.
The couple told deputies they were asleep when they heard noises at the back of the residence. They went to a back bedroom where they heard noises and discovered an unknown man in the bed. The couple did not know the man and did not know why he had broken in.
Deputies found that Domingo Nehemias Cruz Cifuentes, 19, had apparently pushed an air conditioning unit out of a window and climbed inside the house. Cifuentes was sitting on a couch when deputies arrived. He had a strong odor of alcoholic beverage on his body, and he stumbled and swayed as he stood and walked.
Cifuentes was so intoxicated that all he could say was he knew a guy who had lived in the residence who stated he could come and stay whenever he needed to. A
Cifuentes was arrested and taken him to the Lincoln Parish Detention Center. He was booked for unauthorized entry of an inhabited dwelling, disturbing the peace by appearing intoxicated, and two bench warrants for failure to appear in court. Bail was set at $5,500.
