A homeowner in Maine used a beer to entice an intoxicated intruder to leave. The intruder apparently didn't realize that it was a nonalcoholic beer, police said.
The homeowner awoke early Monday to find 22-year-old Scott Cote in his bedroom and used the beer to convince him to carry on, Bar Harbor police said. Officers said they found Cote breaking into cars a short time later and arrested him after he fled into some woods.
Police arrested Cote on charges of burglary, criminal mischief, operating a motor vehicle after revocation and violating the conditions of release.
Cote was returned to the Hancock County Jail after an initial appearance in court Tuesday. No lawyer has been assigned to represent him.
