Peoria, Illinois - A man returned home Saturday to find someone had broken in, but nothing was missing - except a $6 steak that was apparently cooked and eaten while he was away.

An intruder broke a window to enter 1516 NE Perry Ave. sometime between 11 a.m. and 9:45 p.m.

The resident, returning home that night, discovered the broken window. After searching the house for any missing items, he went into his kitchen and found a large mess.

There were dirty dishes in the sink, a dirty skillet on the stove, used paper towels all over the counter and the steak he had been defrosting was missing, according to police reports.
