CAPE ELIZABETH, Maine (AP) Police in Maine say a drunken man had to sober up at a police station after he took a wrong Lyft and tried to get into a house he mistakenly thought was his home.
Cape Elizabeth police say the Falmouth man mistakenly got into a Lyft summoned by a man who lived next door. Police say the man was dropped off early Saturday and staggered toward a nearby home, believing it to be his home.
Police say he caused a commotion trying to get in, prompting the homeowner to call the police.

Fenton says the man is very sorry.
