STAFFORD, N.Y. — An 18-year-old Ontario man has been charged after police say he woke up naked in a stranger's home in upstate New York.

Chief Gordon Dibble of the Genesee County Sheriff's Office says the man was in town for a lacrosse tournament when he was found by a homeowner around 5:30 a.m. on Monday in Stafford, N.Y.

Dibble says alcohol was involved and the man was apparently confused.

Vernon Hill, of Ohsweken, Ont., has been charged with criminal trespass in the second degree and was remanded to Genesee County jail on $1,000 bail.

Dibble says Hill appeared in court on Tuesday to face the charge.
