When burglars broke into a San Leandro restaurant, money wasn’t the only thing on their list: police said they made off with a “large quantity” of eggs.
Police said the group also targeted a Gamestop, where officers first made contact with the suspects.
Around 6 a.m., police were alerted to a burglary at the Fashion Faire shopping center Gamestop. Police saw two drivers drive away, prompting a pursuit.
One of the drivers crashed into another vehicle near the intersection of Hesperian and 150th Avenue and came to a stop. According to police, two people got out of the car and one of them was arrested after a short chase.
The other occupant managed to escape, as did the second driver. Police said a third vehicle was left at the Gamestop, and they learned the same group had broken into Elios Family Restaurant earlier in the morning.
A “large quantity” of eggs, liquor and money were stolen from the restaurant. They also took numerous gaming consoles from Gamestop.
According to police, some stolen items were recovered from the crashed vehicle. No one was injured in the crash.
