SAN DIEGO (KGTV) - A man suspected of breaking into a Victoria’s Secret store at Horton Plaza early Monday morning was arrested after a brief chase.

At around 4:45 a.m., a security company for the downtown mall contacted San Diego police to report a camouflage-wearing man caught on surveillance cameras dropping down into the store through the ceiling.

Responding officers surrounded the store, and after a short wait, the suspected burglar ran from the scene.

Officers chased the man down to the first level of the mall and arrested him.

He was reportedly carrying several bags full of merchandise at the time of his arrest.
