Philly Police put out an APB moments ago about a restaurant break-in last month:

On December 7, 2011, at 4:21am, an unknown Male approached the Mexico on the Square located at 1511 Pine Street and kicked the front door breaking the glass. The suspect entered the business by going through the lower portion of the entrance door and proceeded to the register and attempt to open the register. The suspect then grabbed the register and slammed it on the floor several times causing the register to open and removed approximately $50 in cash. The suspect exited the business and fled on foot.

Suspect description:

Male, unknown race, thin build, approximately 6', short dark hair, tattoo on left forearm, wearing a long sleeve shirt and possibly blue jeans

If you see this male do not approach him, contact 911 immediately.

To submit a tip via telephone, dial 215.686.TIPS (8477).

    Any smart restaurant owner knows to leave the cash register open so as to not have it broken. Why was there money in it anyway??
