Couple Caught Roof Looting

Two suspects caught on a mall roof in Muncie, Indiana, after a midnight police raid—turns out they weren’t just making out, they were planning a heist. Chad Hart, 49, admitted he was stealing copper and scrap metal from HVAC units, bringing along Robin Huffman, 50, who claimed ignorance… until police found her car with a tarp over the trunk and bags stuffed with tools and stripped wires. Hart’s gear? Drills, wrenches, and an angle grinder—all found on the roof. The property manager even pointed to a freshly cut gate. Hart faces felony burglary and theft, with a $15K bond; Huffman got medical treatment and was booked. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
