When the homeowner said he was calling the sheriff’s office, the intruder sat on the couch downstairs and said he would wait for them, the homeowner’s son said.
Hill was a stranger to the resident, and was taken into custody without incident.
He told deputies “the dog told me to come here” and had let him inside.
Hill was booked into the Clark County Jail on suspicion of aggravated burglary and assault.
