The suspect gets to the cash register but it was empty. Police say he left without taking anything.

A second man remained outside, acting as a lookout.

Investigators say the two suspects fled together in possibly a silver Nissan Altima-styled vehicle.

The restaurant was closed on Monday to have repairs done on that door.

If you recognize anything about that suspect, police want to hear from you.
