He was charged with commercial burglary and other crimes.

Jeffery W. Mumani, 25, says he's no thief and that he was in the shaft to rescue a cat.

"I heard a cat in the thing. I was trying to chase the cat," Mumani said.

A milkman for T.G. Lee heard the trapped man Tuesday morning, store manager Nicholas Gajraj said.
