A Gallia County man is being held in prison for breaking and entering.

Nathan Unroe, 26, was arrested around 1 a.m. Friday when he was caught in the bathroom of a home on State Route 7.

The homeowner was sleeping on the couch when he woke up and found Unroe looking for pills.

The homeowner hit Unroe with the muzzle of a shotgun and waited for deputies to arrive at the scene.

Deputies say Unroe lives a couple miles down the road and was walking home when he broke in through a back door that had been wired shut.

Unroe is being held on a burglary charge.
