BROWNSVILLE, TEXAS -- Two men arrested by Brownsville police for allegedly stealing coins from parking meters will be charged Friday.
A homeless man helped Brownsville police catch the men.
The man claimed he saw Johnny "Joe" Rojano destroying several meters on Jefferson Street.
Rojano is facing thirty counts of burglary.
A second suspect, Alejandro Zuniga, is believed to have been the driver transporting Rojano to each crime.
"Rojano was using a pipe," explained Sgt. Jimmy Manrrique. "He was basically forcing the pipe between the two meter heads and then just pulling up on that pipe and getting access to the meter."
