DAYTON - Officers responding to a burglary alarm at a local school arrived to find a man carrying a blue bag full of microwave dinners and the teachers’ lounge refrigerator raided.

Officer Joshua Frisby was near the Miami Valley Childhood Development Center, 3805 Kings Highway at about 9:15 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 22, when he noticed John L. Brandon Jr. walking away from the building, according to a police report.

Brandon, 51 (pictured), was carrying the blue bag around his neck, but he did not notice Frisby, who arrived after an alarm was tripped inside the school, the report stated.

Brandon told Frisby he was coming from a convenience store where he purchased some food, according to the report. Frisby opened up the bag and found screwdrivers, cutting pliers and a flashlight.

There was also a Kroger bag full of Banquet dinners, the report stated.

More officers arrived to find a window screen had been cut and a window open near the teacher’s lounge, the report stated. They went inside and found the freezer had been raided.

When asked where he got the food, Brandon allegedly told officers he came from a direction different than Frisby had observed. Frisby then learned Brandon had burglarized the school in 2006, according to the report.

Brandon was arrested on a felony charge of breaking and entering and possessing criminal tools.
