Burglar busted in Pike/Pine heist -- UPDATE: Century Ballroom break-in

UPDATE 9:50 AM:
The suspect in this morning's foiled burglary of the Century Ballroom didn't get very far. Officers apprehended the 29-year-old white male after a short chase down Nagle Place to the basketball courts of Cal Anderson Park only two minutes after the call reporting the crime.

ORIGINAL POST:
Still tracking down details on this but here's the report on this morning's bust from the Seattle Police Department:

On June 25th at approximately 1:45 a.m., East Precinct officers responded to a call of a burglary in progress in the 900 Block of East Pine Street.  The call indicated that the suspect was being chased by employees of the business that had been broken into.  Officers quickly arrived and arrested the suspect. The suspect was positively identified by witnesses.   The 29-year old male suspect was later booked into the King County Jail for Investigation of Burglary.

Street-level businesses on that block include Molly Moon's Ice Cream and the Seattle Running Company. It is also less than three blocks from East Precinct headquarters at 12th and Pine.
