PHILADELPHIA - Authorities are searching for a burglary suspect who was caught on camera smashing through a Philadelphia restaurant's glass door and stealing a bike.
Investigators say the smash and grab happened last Friday at a restaurant on the 3000 block of North Broad Street.
Video shared by police shows the hooded suspect using what appears to be a brick to shatter the restaurant's glass door, then climbing through the broken pane.
The suspect is seen in the kitchen of the restaurant holding two soda cans. He then briefly uses a cell phone and reemerges with what police say is an electric bike.
