Pasadena police didn’t have to look long for the burglary suspect who broke into a local Taco Bell Saturday and devoured Doritos taco shells.

A man later showed up at the police station and admitted to the deed. Lt. Jesse Carrillo said it appears 10 Doritos taco shells were removed from the counter. He didn’t know how many went down the man’s gullet. Carrillo said some of the shells crumbled and fell to the floor.

“He said he was drunk and hungry and broke into the business to eat taco shells,” Lt. Pete Hettema said.

Police received a call of a possible burglary at the Taco Bell, 2050 Fair Oaks Ave, at 3:15 a.m. Saturday. A witness gave a description of the suspect.

About four hours later, a man approached a sergeant who was standing in front of the police station at 207 N. Garfield Ave. Hettema said the man wore clothing that matched the description given by the witness. The man told the sergeant he broke into the restaurant, according to Hettema.

Jose Cruz, 22, of Pasadena was arrested on suspicion of commercial burglary. He is being held at the Inmate Reception Center in Los Angeles on $20,000 bail.

Cruz will be arraigned Tuesday at Pasadena Superior Court.
