CINCINNATI -- Police in Cincinnati say a trail of candy and wrappers led them to suspects in a break-in at a downtown candy store.
Four people have been charged with breaking and entering. One of the four also has been charged with child endangerment.
Police said 19-year-old Christine Ruther had her 7-week-old daughter with her when she and three others broke into Peter Minges (MIHNG'-guhs) & Son candy store Thursday. They are accused of taking about $400 in candy.
The group was arrested a few blocks away.
