An Oregon couple woke up to find a burglar sleeping on their bedroom floor, according to police Wednesday.

Ervin Solomon, 64, told the started couple that he simply needed a place to sleep after being woken up on their bedroom floor. According to authorities, the woman called 911 around 4:40 a.m. to say that she and her husband found a man sleeping on their bedroom floor, reported Oregonlive.com. After the couple escorted the man out of their home, they soon realized that many of their valuables were missing, reported the Associated Press.

The couple’s electronic devices and wallets were stolen, according to Deputy Jeff Talbot, a sheriff for the Washington County’s Sherrif Office.

The police used the Find My iPhone App to locate Soloman three blocks away from their house, hiding underneath a porch. Police also found jewelry, a knife and drug paraphernalia on the alleged burglar.

“He was very much awake by that point,” said Talbot.

Soloman was booked into Washington County jail on first-degree burglary, theft, and felon. Soloman is set for a $50,000 bail.
