DULUTH, Minn., May 6 (UPI) -- A young burglary suspect caught napping inside a Duluth, Minn., house pleaded guilty but said he doesn't remember committing the crime.

Keith Bellanger was awakened by Kathie and Wayne Boniface, when they came home from dinner, the Duluth News Tribune reported. He fled the house after a protracted fight that left him in the buff. Bellanger, 20, allegedly had a blood alcohol content of 0.22 percent -- about three times the legal limit for DUI -- when he was arrested 15 minutes later.

He said he remembered going in the house but not fighting the couple or running from the neighbors naked, the News Tribune said.

"I don't actually remember what went on," he said when he pleaded guilty to a felony first-degree burglary charge.

Bellanger had allegedly entered the home through an unlocked door.

He faces up to 81 months in prison but could avoid jail by completing a drug and alcohol treatment program, the newspaper said.
