Fresno police say they arrested a “prolific” restaurant burglary suspect at 6 a.m. Thursday near a coffee shop at Blackstone and San Jose avenues.
According to a Fresno PD news release, officers recognized a parked vehicle as that of Robert George Hill, who was wanted in connection with multiple burglaries.
As officers approached the vehicle, they saw Hill leaving the shop with a coffee in hand. Spotting the cops, the 6-foot-3, 225-pound Hill ran across Blackstone before being caught.
