I recommend not talking with the police. Consult a criminal defense lawyer in your area immediately. There may be forensic evidence at the scene you are not aware of. Sometimes the police will say they have evidence when they don't and will try to bluff you into confessing. Please note that in many jurisdictions residential burglary is a strike, exposing the defendant to significant consequences (increase in sentence) if the person is charged and convicted of certain crimes in the future.
