Second-hand smoke leads cops to car thief in Pa.

(CBS/AP) SOUTH GREENSBURG, Pa. - Police say a suspect in a car theft was found in the crawl space of a western Pennsylvania office building, after his cigarette smoke gave away his hiding place.

More proof that second-hand smoke can be hazardous to your health!

South Greensburg police Chief Scott Fanchalsky says officers searched for 30-year-old Daniel Block for hours Wednesday afternoon before two employees smelled smoke coming from above the ceiling on the fourth floor.

Officers crawled in after Block and he surrendered peacefully.

WTAE-TV reports that Block had been putting gas into a stolen car when an employee at the gas station called police. Fanchalsky says officers tried to take him into custody but he escaped and ran into the office building, prompting a lockdown...and a "smokeout."
