Bumbling burglar stumped at Zesto’s

Posted by Geeky Swedes on November 24th, 2008

Last night, a burglar broke into Zesto’s on 65th and got away with… nothing. Well, he did get on KING 5 News (watch video). The man took 30 minutes to break through a window, standing in front of a security camera the entire time. When he finally squeezed inside, he tried unsuccessfully to remove the cash register, which finally popped open to reveal… nothing.

Zesto’s is offering a $250 reward for information leading to the man’s arrest. (Thanks Boxcar for the tip!)

Update: MyBallard reader Toudios says he spotted the suspect on Wednesday night, called police and they arrested him a short time later on Market St. We have not yet confirmed this with police.
