MIAMI, Fla. - Police in Miami say they have arrested three men suspected of burglarizing at least 17 Chinese and Japanese restaurants this year, reports CBS Miami.

The lead Miami-Dade Police detective in the case, Alex Cao, told the station that in most cases, the suspects broke in through front or back doors, often between 3 a.m. and 4 a.m. when no one was in the business.

Cao said tens of thousands of dollars in cash and liquor were taken but no one was hurt.

The suspects were arrested earlier this month after an officer spotted the suspects' car, pulled them over and took them into custody, reports the station.

The three suspects have been identified as 43-year-old James Gibson, 46-year-old Anton Andrews and 43-year-old Timothy Hudson. Police say Hudson was on probation after serving a sentence for attempted first-degree murder. Andrews and Hudson are each being charged in nine of the burglaries while Gibson is being charged in 14, according to the station.

Records show all of the men have extensive criminal histories on charges involving robberies, assaults, drugs and burglaries, reports the station.

Authorities say there may be other victims out there and are urging them to call police or Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at (305) 471-TIPS (8477).
