Man accused of stealing teachers' frozen lunches

[November 26, 2008]  DAYTON, Ohio (AP) -- A man was accused of breaking into a Dayton preschool and making off with the teachers' frozen lunch entrees. Police said an officer who responded to a burglar alarm at a Miami Valley Child Development location last Saturday noticed a 51-year-old man walking away from the building.

The officer reported the suspect was carrying a blue bag around his neck that contained screwdrivers, cutting pliers, a flashlight and several microwave dinners.

Other officers arrived at the school and found a screen had been cut, a window near the teacher's lounge was open, and the lounge freezer had been looted.

The man was arrested and charged with breaking and entering and possessing criminal tools.
