Police didn't have a hard time finding three teenage burglary suspects who allegedly broke into a St. Paul recreation center last week. All they had to do was follow a trail of Cheetos.
A witness told police that she saw Michael Bady, 18, Jesse Fairly, 19, and a 17-year-old boy drop a bag of chips as they ran from the Arlington Recreation Center to a nearby residence around 1 a.m. on July 29.
Police checked the rec center and found that glass on a vending machine had been smashed. The machine's contents were missing, according to a criminal complaint filed in Ramsey County District Court.
Fairly and Bady were charged with third-degree burglary.
The third teen, a 17-year-old boy, also was arrested.
Police "followed a trail of Cheetos" that led to the suspects. The witness positively identified Bady, Fairly and the third teen.
Police found 19 vending machine-size bags of Cheetos and two bags of Sun Chips in their possession, the complaint said.

I’ve seen photos of two of the suspects. This wasn’t one of them.
