When one of the employees looked out front, she saw a man, wearing a dark hoodie, kicking on the door.The employees, fearing a robbery, ran out the back door of the restaurant and called 911. In the meantime, the mysterious burglar was able to complete his break-in by kicking open the front door after smashing it with a rock.“Two cash drawers were taken,” said Adcock.
