COPS CORNER 'MASKED BANDIT' IN DENVER ATTIC

Responding to a report of a burglary in progress, police cornered a four-legged intruder in a home on North Tejon Street in Denver. 

"The resident told officers he woke up to the sound of someone walking around his home," officials said. "He then barricaded himself in the bathroom while officers investigated.

"The house checked clear - until officers heard more rustling coming from the attic. After a careful search, they discovered the 'suspect' hiding out."

The break-in occurred on Jan. 11.

FLASH UPDATE:  Nearly three in four people detained by ICE last year had no criminal conviction, says the Cato Institute, a Washington think tank, which obtained confidential government data.
