May 17, 2012, 7:26 AM | Updated: 8:53 am

A car prowler left a little treat inside a Jeep he broke
into last week in Seattle’s University District.

Seattle police report the Jeep was found with a broken
window
near NE 45th Street and
19th
Avenue NE
on May 9 or 10. Nothing was missing from
the vehicle, but
there were a dozen tortillas scattered around the floor of
the vehicle.

After the incident, the department posted a
warning
to would-be car prowlers on their crime
blotter:

“The Seattle Police Department would like to take this
opportunity to remind car prowlers that you shouldn’t
break
in to something that’s nachos.”
