A Grantsville man arrested for breaking into homes in the city without pants was also wanted in connection with other lewd behavior, according to a Grantsville City Police report.

Dakota Joe Denton, 23, was arrested on June 17 after he invaded several homes at the end of May. He was charged with two counts of second-degree felony burglary, one count of third-degree felony attempted burglary and three counts of misdemeanor lewdness.

According to the police report, Denton was also implicated in a similar home invasion prior to May 29, when he broke into two homes and attempted to enter another. Denton also admitted he approached another woman in Grantsville in June and showed her a picture of his genitals on his phone, the report said.

In an interview with police, Denton admitted he was high on methamphetamine when he committed the home invasions on May 29 and stood next to the beds of two women while naked from the waist down. Due to his impairment, Denton said he only remembered flashes of what happened, according to the report.

Denton said he hid in a tree to evade police that attempted to arrest him the night of May 29, the report said.

A roll call hearing for Denton was scheduled for July 14 at 9 a.m. in Third District Court at his initial appearance on June 30.
