An Oklahoma woman was arrested in connection to an attempted home burglary after police found Cheetos residue on her teeth, authorities said Monday.
The incident happened around 8 p.m. Friday at a Tulsa home, police said. A woman at the residence told responding officers that she was home with two small children when a woman climbed inside through a window.
Officers determined the suspect had pried a screen off the window to get inside but left before stealing anything or harming anyone, according to police.
