Thief found covered in grease at barbecue joint, police say

DAYTON - A 40-year-old man is facing a felony burglary charge after officers patrolling near a barbecue joint found him outside the restaurant and reeking of grease Wednesday, Sept. 2.

Officers Jennifer Stack and Jeffrey Spires were in the parking lot of Huffie’s Barbecue restaurant about 3 a.m. when the building’s alarm system went off, according to the police report.

Stack and Spires had just checked the perimeter of the restaurant, but rushed to the front door and found Andre Daniels crouched down near a door, the report stated.

The officers noticed Daniels had a strong odor of grease coming from his clothes. Daniels told the officers he was eating food out of the dumpster and must have kicked a nearby freezer, which activated the alarm.

But the officers climbed onto the roof and saw “fresh footprints” and a backpack on the roof, the report stated.

Stack and Spires determined Daniels broke into the restaurant through the roof and tried to get cash from the register, the report stated. Daniels was taken to the Montgomery County Jail on a felony breaking and entering charge.
