Lester Miller may be a suspected burglar, but no one would call him a clothes horse.

Denver police say that Miller, 55, entered an East Colfax Avenue apartment “completely nude,” and when one of the occupants ordered him to leave, refused, according to a police report.

When he came toward the armed occupant, he got a bullet in the leg.

This is what police say happened: The couple, who live with their two children in the 7100 block of East Colfax Avenue, returned home from shopping at about 2 p.m. on Oct. 13.

Miller entered through the unlocked front door.

As the couple was putting away groceries they heard a door shut. The husband told his wife to call 911, got his gun and went to investigate.

“The female occupant took the children and hid in a bedroom while the victim challenged the defendant,” according to the report.

Miller was in the children’s bedroom, and when the husband ordered him to leave, flopped down on one of the beds. The husband told him to get out of the apartment or he would shoot him.

Miller allegedly got out of the bed and began advancing on the husband, who continued to “order the defendant out of his home.”

When Miller kept coming, the husband fired once, hitting him in the leg.

“After being shot, the defendant continued to refuse to leave and went inside the bathroom to hide.”

Police arrived and arrested Miller.

Miller, who is scheduled for a court hearing on Nov. 5, is facing charges for second degree burglary and indecent exposure.

He is being held the Denver County jail.

The occupants of the apartment couldn’t be reached for comment.
