Police need help from the public in tracking a suspect involved in a daring burglary at the Kennedy Fried Chicken in Bedford Park.

Police from the 52nd Precinct say the suspect crawled under the security gate and broke the store’s window inside to gain access to the fast food eatery at 25 Bedford Park Boulevard on March 9 at around 5 a.m. The suspect took roughly $800 in cash, then ran off heading west on the largely busy street.

“When I came in at 9 a.m. that’s when I see the broken glass and call the police,” said Muhammed Karimi, manager of the Kennedy Fried Chicken. “They took all of my money and now I have to pay $160 to fix [the] window.”

The suspect is described as a black male in his mid to late 40’s, approximately 5’9” or 5’10” and 180 to 185 lbs.

Karimi thanks anyone who goes to the police with information, and believes footage from a NYPD camera (see below) and the store’s will help identify the suspect.
