CCTV shows burger bar break in

Owners of the Solita burger bar in Greater Manchester have released CCTV footage of a break in to help track down the perpetrator.

The thief smashed their way into the restaurant, in Prestwich, in the early hours of Friday morning, March 4.

The pictures show an individual in a distinctive coat kicking down a door to an office before making off with hundreds of pounds.

Co-owner Franco Sotgiu told the Manchester Evening News "There was only a few hundred quid that got taken. We’re not bothered about that.“What I’m concerned about is our cleaner starts around the same time as it happened and she was quite shaken up that she could have come into work as he or she was in there.”

The thief entered the restaurant through a fire door on Church Lane.

Greater Manchester Police is investigating the incident. Anyone with information is asked to contact them by calling 101.
