Niagara Falls Police responded to the 900 block of Rainbow Boulevard, the old Nabisco plant, around 11:20am on December 9th after reports of a burglary in progress.
Upon arrival, officers spoke with a representative of Niagara Falls Redevelopment (NFR). They entered the building and heard voices - a male and female - coming from the second floor. Additional units were requested.
Officers made contact with the male suspect who was detained and placed in the rear of a patrol vehicle. It was later learned that the second voice was a female who the suspect was talking to on the phone. According to the NFR representative, a glass window was smashed and the board was ripped off to gain entry. The representative did not know if there was anything else damaged or taken.
It is unknown what the suspect intended to do inside of the Nabisco plant or what he planned on taking. Officers transported him to police headquarters for booking and processing. No further information is available at this time.
