SALEM, ore. - Instead of making away with whatever they were planning to steal, two burglars who broke into a Chinese restaurant ended up getting busted.

On Thursday, the owner of the Blue Willow on Lancaster Drive decided to stay late to work on his security system. Around 4:30 a.m. on Friday he was still there and heard people making noise on the building's roof. So he did what anyone would do in that situation - he called police.

It turned out that two men had pried a hole through the roof and dropped into the restaurant. But by then, police had the place surrounded. One man tried to run out the back door and the other out the front. Both were quickly taken into custody.

We always say that we generally don't catch the smart ones because we're too busy with the dumb ones, said Lt. Steve Birr with the Salem Police Department.

The suspects were later identified as 43-year-old Lonny De Hut and 47-year-old Kurtis Kent. The two are facing charges of first-degree burglary, second-degree theft, first-degree attempted aggravated theft, first-degree criminal mischief and identity theft. They are being held at the Marion County Correctional Facility.
