Michael Ocampo, age 38, of Norwalk, was arrested around 1:40 a.m., on Monday, Oct. 25, after Darien Police said officers responded to an unoccupied vehicle left running in the northbound lane of Hollow Tree Ridge Road.

When officers found the vehicle, they searched the area for the driver without finding him, said Sergeant Dan Skoumbros, of the Dairen Police.

A couple of hours later, a resident who was not home around 3:20 a.m. said their Ring doorbell had notified that them that a person had gone inside their home, Skoumbros said.

Officers responded to the residence and observed a man sitting inside the house sitting on the staircase leading to the second floor. 

The man, later identified as Ocampo said he was working on the house. It was determined that Ocampo was not employed to work on the house and appeared intoxicated. 

Ocampo was arrested and charged with criminal trespass. He was released on a promise to appear ticket.
