An investigation into an illegal marijuana grow operation led police to two Michigan buildings full of pot plants.

The sheriff's office said the Prudenville man got into the home on Gladwin Road by breaking a screen out of a window. The suspect, who police say did not have pants on, defecated in a trashcan and rubbed the mess on furniture. It is unclear what else he was up to for the hours he was in the home.

When a 33-year-old woman who lives in the home woke up and confronted him, the suspect fled but was later arrested.

The suspect has not been identified because he has not been arraigned.
