A burglar used a rock to break into a restaurant but leaves empty-handed

A newly released surveillance video catches the quick work of a thief at a northwest Atlanta business.

Police are asking for the public to take a close look at the images and see anyone can recognize him.

Officers said he burglarized The Slice Restaurant on Poplar Street early Friday.

Investigators said the crook threw a large rock through the business window, went straight for the cash register, but quickly ran back out after finding the register empty.
