Authorities are searching for a man who broke into a Five Guys restaurant located in Washington, D.C. last month after surveillance video caught the burglar cooking himself some food and stealing a couple of drinks before taking off.
Surprisingly, the burger thief made off with a bottle of water, a fountain drink and some food, but no cash.
ABC News reports that the man tailed a worker making a delivery to the restaurant and after the worker left, cooked himself what appears in the video to be an ordinary cheeseburger.
The Metropolitan Police Department indicated that the suspect stole a bottle of water and fountain drink in addition to whatever it is he cooked himself while the location was closed for the night.
The burglary occurred between 3:10 a.m. and 5:05 a.m. on March 18, 2016.
The Five Guys location that the man broke into is located on Irving Street in Columbia Heights.
A $1,000 reward is being offered by DC Crime Solvers for a tip that leads to an arrest.
The Washington Post reports that local police are investigating the crime as a burglary.
Officer Sean Hickman was quoted by the Post as having said that the man in the video did cook food, but whether or not he made a hamburger remains unclear at this time.
He cooked food. I don’t know if he made a hamburger or not
The Metropolitan Police Department released video of the incident captured by the restaurant’s surveillance cameras. The footage was uploaded to the department’s official YouTube channel.
