Police Blotter: Little Caesars Burglarized; Pot Plants Seized from Canonsburg Apartment

An employee at the Little Caesars Pizza in Canonsburg told police on Monday that someone had broken in sometime Friday night.

According to a police report, video surveillance showed that the suspect entered through a door around 11:21 p.m. Friday and went directly to the cash register, stealing $193. The burglar then went into an office, where the employee told police he rifled through drawers to find a set of keys that, once in his possession, he used to unsuccessfully open a safe.

But in the process, the suspect stole another $96 in cash from the office.

Canonsburg police are investigating the incident. A description of the suspect was not immediately disclosed.

Marijuana Plants Seized

Police said a borough man is being charged by summons for growing two marijuana plants at his Spruce Street apartment.

While responding to a call of a suspicious person in the area behind 317 Spruce St., Canonsburg police said they saw the two plants growing in pots on a deck. A report indicates each plant was about 2-feet high.

Police said when they knocked on the door, Percy Dudley, 50, admitted that the pot plants were his.
