Pennsylvania police looking for jellybean burglar

Police in northwestern Pennsylvania say a burglar took some jellybeans from a home — but nothing else.

NORTH EAST, Pa. — Police in northwestern Pennsylvania say a burglar took some jellybeans from a home — but nothing else.

Police admit they are stumped by the burglary in the state’s North East Township.

Sgt. Mark Zaleski says it remains unclear whether the suspect wanted only jellybeans.

Or maybe that’s all the thief had time to grab.

Police say the sweet-toothed burglar broke a front door window Friday night and took the jellybeans from a dining room table.

The homeowner reported that nothing else was missing or even moved.
