A burglary suspect dramatically fell through the ceiling of a Florida restaurant, landing among startled diners. Justin Grimes, 30, was crawling through the ceiling of the Hibachi Grill and Supreme Buffet in Daytona Beach on Tuesday when the ceiling gave way.
Police believe Grimes entered the ceiling via the bathroom and was attempting to reach the office where money is kept. Instead, he crashed into the dining room, leaving a gaping hole and dangling wires.
Diners had reported hearing noises from the ceiling around 6 p.m. The manager checked surveillance footage and found broken ceiling tiles, wires, and a pair of shoes on the floor.
After falling, Grimes tried to flee but was restrained by customers until police arrived. He is charged with burglary of an occupied structure and is being held in jail.
