A man left his shoe at the scene of the crime after he stole guns, a PlayStation, cash and other items from a home in Cocoa, according to Florida Today news partner News 6.

The homeowner's surveillance video showed Joseph Wayne Knight, 27, of the 3400 block of Frankie Lane, Cocoa, and another man entering the residence around 8:30 a.m. Wednesday. When Knight and the other man leave the home several minutes later, they were carrying guns and Knight was missing one shoe, the Brevard County Sheriff's Office said.

The two men got into the Toyota Corolla they arrived in and drove a few feet away before the car stopped. One of the men got out and tried to bend the license plate as if to conceal from cameras, deputies said.

The Corolla returned to the home and Knight went inside, according to the affidavit. He exited the home, carrying items wrapped in a blanket.

The homeowner told deputies that guns, a PlayStation, an Epson Projector, a Harbor Freight wall mount safe, bills, titles and $300 cash were stolen.

Deputies found the Corolla at a home in Titusville. The owner, who is Knight's mother's boyfriend, gave deputies consent to search the vehicle. A slip-on shoe matching the one left at the crime scene was found inside the car, deputies said.

The owner of the Corolla identified Knight in the surveillance video. The Sheriff's Office is still trying to determine the accomplice's identity.

Knight was arrested shortly before 4 a.m. Friday on charges for two counts of armed burglary and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. In 2009, Knight was convicted in Brevard County for two counts of trafficking in stolen property and burglary of a structure. He spent one year and two months in prison.
