Suspect climbs through drive-thru window to rob McDonald's in Philadelphia
The drive-thru employee told police she was not hurt during this incident.
PHILADELPHIA (WPVI) -- Philadelphia police are investigating after a man robbed a McDonald's through its drive-thru window on Friday night.
It happened at approximately 11:15 p.m. on the 700 block of Adams Avenue in the city's Lawncrest neighborhood.
An employee working at the drive-thru told police a man armed with a handgun climbed into the window and demanded the register.
The suspect took the register, which had between $100 and $150 inside, and then fled through the window.
He was last seen fleeing the scene in a black Chevy Malibu which had two other male passengers in it.
The employee told police she was not hurt during this incident.
This theft comes just days after an attempted robbery at a Wendy's also along Adams Avenue in the Lawncrest neighborhood.
In that incident, the would-be robber attempted to climb through the drive-thru window with a metal object in his hand, but employees managed to push him out.
Police have not said whether the two cases are connected.
