The bandit cut through a glass door to get into the office at the Delta station on Grand Avenue at West Palisade Boulevard shortly after 12:30 a.m. last Sunday, Detective Sgt. Alex Monteleone said.
He snatched proceeds from a cigar box and fled on foot, the sergeant said.
Surveillance video shows the burglar wearing a hat, face mask, blue hoodie, khaki pants and gloves, Monteleone said.
Anyone with information that could help identify him is asked to contact Palisades Park police: (201) 944-0900.
