Man Breaks into Mahoney's Irish Pub & Steakhouse

We spoke with Pat Rohan, manager of Mahoney's Irish Pub & Steakhouse, and got details about a robbery that took place Monday morning around 7 am. A man in a black hoodie rode up to the establishment on a bicycle and removed a window-mounted AC unit to get inside the establishment, stealing two cash registers that contained an undisclosed amount of cash.

In one part of the surveillance video, you can see the man removing the AC unit and climbing into the lower level of the bar.

Another part of the video shows the man crashing to the ground upon entering.

 

Rohan tells us that the robbery is under investigation and that the local authorities believe they know who the man is in the surveillance video footage, indicating that it's only a matter of time before the man will be caught and justice will be served.
