Burglar spends 3 hours inside restaurant, helps himself to coffee

[QUOTE]SEATTLE -- Workers at the Greenlake Bar and Grill are asking for your help identifying a man who was caught on camera last Thursday morning breaking into the restaurant, where he stayed about three hours and even helped himself to a cup of coffee as he rummaged through the place.

"It was unnerving," said Matt Wood, the General Manager of the Greenlake Bar and Grill.
Wood said a janitor was still inside the restaurant when the burglar arrived but somehow the man went unnoticed. the restaurant has several areas so it's possible the janitor didn't see the burglar as the man waited for the janitor to leave.
"I was shocked because I haven't seen (that). That's never happened in the three years I've been here," said Wood.
Wood believes the suspect jumped a fence in the alley then forced his way in through the back door. According to surveillance video, the man entered through the back door around 12:40 a.m. last Thursday.

Possible the burglar was homeless or something, I don't see why else someone would stay indoors for 3 hours and get some coffee besides the alternative being to face harsh January conditions.

Wouldn't surprise me, homelessness is a growing problem here in Seattle, mostly druggies.

Honestly if youre homeless, I imagine the free shelter and food of prison is pretty appealing in Winter, especially if gotten by commiting crimes of this kind.

If I was to burglarize a restaurant I'd definetely grab a cup of coffee if I knew for sure the alarm hadn't gone off. I mean why not. Not like the cup of coffee is worth more than whatever else you're stealing. v:v:v
