The thief may have broken into the restaurant through the drive-through window, the manager of the McDonalds, located on 301 Warren Street in Roxbury, told police who arrived at the scene around 12:45 a.m. on Saturday, March 4, according to the Boston Police Department.
The suspect confronted staff members and demanded cash, pushing one of the workers in the process. Not wanting to leave empty-handed, the suspect took several to-go bags of food that had been set aside for delivery drivers and ran away on foot.
The Warren Street McDonald's was the scene of a violent incident two months prior to the break-in, in which a customer became "irate" with how his coffee was prepared and knocked over a glass bakery warmer, as reported by Daily Voice.
