A New Mexico burglar made himself at home during a recent break-in at a stranger’s home — cooking himself a meal of noodles and hot chocolate before he was caught.
Tommy Lee Lucero, 44, was found Saturday by officers from the Dona Ana Sheriff’s Office inside a desert home in Chaparral, a small community across the Texas border outside El Paso.
The woman who lives at the home had come home from school around 6:00 p.m. when she found Lucero hanging out in her bedroom, according to a criminal complaint obtained by KFOX.
After yelling “Get the **** out of my house!” he ran and ran to a close relative’s house to call the police.
Lucero was still in the house when officers arrived to arrest him, and the woman was brought back to check the house to see if anything was wrong – which she found was.

Lucero apparently had cooked a bowl of ramen noodles, made hot chocolate, and fixed himself some leftovers from the refrigerator, according to the complaint.
He also emptied food from the refrigerator and pantry, bagged it, and threw it into the yard and laundry room.
Inside the tossed-out food bag were photographs of the woman that had been “torn into small pieces,” the complaint states, along with several intact framed photographs.
Lucero also allegedly moved some men’s bath products from the guest bathroom to the master bathroom and removed the women’s products from the bathroom.

Also, he swiped ten pairs of his shoes and kicked his own to try them on. He also allegedly took the cash he left behind.
When police confronted Lucero, he told them that he owned the house and that he shared it with his girlfriend, who he said he had been dating since preschool.
The suspect is being held on bond on charges of burglary and concealing identity, KFOX reported.
