A man was arrested near Columbus, Ohio, Tuesday for allegedly breaking into numerous stores and was later found with a pair of hamsters inside his leopard print onesie, according to police.

Columbus Police responded to the Roosters restaurant near Hilliard just after 3 a.m., after receiving an alert from the restaurant’s security system.

The responding officers retraced the suspect’s steps, and, about 10 minutes later, they were led to a pet store, Petland, after finding a dog in the shopping center.

Police body-worn camera footage from inside the store showed several glass windows from dog cages were smashed.

The owner of Petland told a local ABC station in Columbus the suspect, believed to be 31-year-old Matthew Pancake, let 15 animals out of their cages before fleeing.

A little later, at about 4 a.m., officers were led to a nearby Famous Footwear shoe store that was also broken into.
