Man breaks into chocolate store on Halloween night

A man broke into a Seattle candy store to steal a box of chocolates – on Halloween night.

The incident happened shortly after 8:20 p.m. at the Pioneer Square location of the Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory, at 99 Yesler Way.

Surveillance video shows the man throwing a rock through the glass door and going inside to take the single box of chocolates.

It took three minutes for police to arrive, and officers said they found their suspect in a nearby alley stuffing chocolate into his mouth.
