Burglar went on after-hours supermarket sweep

A man armed with a concrete block and a shopping cart broke into a grocery store in Seattle’s SoDo neighbourhood and had a private shopping spree.

Police were called to the Grocery Outlet on Fourth Avenue South at around 3:40am on Sunday for a report of a burglary.

Officers arrived to find the store’s front windows shattered. Surveillance video from the store showed a man using a concrete block to smash out a pane of glass and then reach in and unlock the door.

Armed with a shopping cart, he then ran though the store, grabbing beer, wine, clothing and even some Easter candy before fleeing. Anyone who recognizes the burglar is asked to call Seattle police.
