Wisconsin man charged in Escanaba Subway thefts

ESCANABA, MI--   A 51-year-old Green Bay man has been extradited to Michigan for robbing two Escanaba Subway restaurants.  

Brook Grzelak was arrested in Ashwaubenon, Wisconsin in December on a probation violation.  A search of his car uncovered evidence linking him to the robberies between December 11 and 12 in Escanaba.  An undisclosed amount of money was taken from restaurant safes. 

Grzelak was transferred from the Dodge County Correctional Facility in Waupun, Wisconsin and arraigned in Delta County District Court Wednesday.  He faces charges of breaking and entering a building with intent, safe breaking, and possession of burglary tools.

Grzelak is also suspected of being involved in robberies from subways in Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota.
