Firefighters were able to free the 43-year-old man from the grease vent at the Red Lion Pub in Houston after he broke into the restaurant through the roof on Sept. 7, Houston police told USA TODAY on Friday.

Police took the man into custody and booked him on a burglary charge. He remains jailed and his arraignment is set for Oct. 30. His bond is set at $15,000, according to jail records.
The pub told authorities the man used to work there but had been fired.
Red Lion Pub declined to comment on the break-in when contacted by USA TODAY on Friday.
