In an ABC News report, the surveillance footage showed a man shimmying through the fast food’s drive-thru window around 12:15 a.m. and “seemed confident that he would not get caught”.
"After he makes entry, he is seen on surveillance using the fryers to make himself a meal and then eats," police said in a statement on Wednesday.
The suspect then proceeded to take a three-hour nap before eventually fleeing the scene.
The suspect was described as "a black male wearing black sweatpants, a black hooded sweatshirt, and black sneakers", police said.
