Cheyenne Police: PB&J Burglar Linked To Multiple Burglaries

Cheyenne Police say 26 -year-old Zachary Munoz of Cheyenne has now been linked to at least six recent burglaries.

Munoz was dubbed the "PB&J burglar" after police matched his DNA to that found on a partially-eaten peanut butter and jelly sandwich at the scene of a break-in at 4 Rivers Equipment in Cheyenne. He allegedly broke into that business on three separate occasions, stealing thousands of dollars worth of Stihl power tools.

Police now believe Munoz also broke into the JC Penny store at the Frontier Mall on three occasions in late September and early October, according to police spokesman Kevin Malatesta

This time police say he left a coffee cup with his DNA at the crime scene.

Munoz was arrested on October 4th after police say he was seen behind Sportsman's Warehouse with burglary tools. He waived a preliminary hearing on December 1 on the original burglary charges.

Munoz is facing up to 30 years in prison if convicted.
