Napping Burglar At Gwinnett Taco Bell First Makes Snack: Video

LAWRENCEVILLE, GA — When the employees are away, the burglar will play — literally. Or in the case of a Lawrenceville Taco Bell, take a nap, too.

Gwinnett County Police are hoping the public can help identify a man — dressed in all black for his burglary, down to his shoes — who recently prepared food and napped during a burglary at a the fast food restaurant on Christmas morning.

About 12:15 a.m. on Dec. 25, a man walked up to the Taco Bell at 4880 Sugarloaf Parkway, and crawled through the drive-thru window.

In surveillance video, he is seen using the fryers to make himself a meal and then eats. After that, he proceeds to take a nap on the restaurant floor.

About three hours later, the suspect steals a laptop and tablet before he leaves the business, police said.

The suspect is described as a black male wearing black sweat pants, a black hooded sweatshirt, and black sneakers.

Anyone with information about the burglary is asked to contact detectives at 770-513-5300. To remain anonymous, tipsters should contact Crime Stoppers at 404-577-TIPS (8477) or visit www.stopcrimeATL.com.
