WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A 28-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of burglary after a Wichita woman found him eating cookie dough from her freezer in the early-morning hours.

The woman came out of her bedroom shortly before 3:30 a.m. Thursday and found the stranger in her kitchen.

Wichita police spokesman Lt. James Espinoza said the man told police he thought he was at his aunt’s house and was hungry.

Police say the man entered the home through an unlocked back door. The 52-year-old woman who lives there was not hurt.

The intruder, who hasn’t been formally charged, was arrested on suspicion of aggravated burglary.
