Jimmy Kang, 41, is charged with Breaking & Entry, Defacement of Property and Aggravated Burglary, among other charges.

In the early hours of Friday, Worcester police were dispatched to Millbury street for reports of a man attempting to break into the former business site of "Takara," a Japanese teppanyaki grill.

The caller told officers that a suspect was in a black Mercedes on Harding street.

According to police, an initial search revealed a Heineken in his driver's side door, and two .45 caliber ammunition cartridges in Kang's pocket.

A more thorough search of the area located a handgun in a fenced-in area near the damaged, former door of Takara.

Kang does not have a license to carry firearms. He is scheduled to be arraigned in Worcester District Court.
