Burglars Steal ATM, Flat-Screen TVs from Paddy’s Pub
Two men broke into Paddy’s Old City Pub and spent an hour inside burglarizing the bar, police said. The burglars entered by breaking into a door and got away with an ATM and two flat-screen televisions.
The venerable watering hole — which shares a name with the fictional Paddy’s Pub on It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia — has long been a welcome respite from the flashier clubs and bars in Old City. (“Paddy’s is a smoky pub with a welcoming atmosphere,” the Drink Nation writes.)
Police released surveillance footage of the burglary.
The cops also released descriptions of the two suspects.
- Suspect No. 1: Black male, 40-50 years-of-age, 6’0″, medium to stocky build, mustache, wearing glasses, light colored hat, light colored jacket with a black hooded sweatshirt underneath, light colored pants, and light colored Nike sneakers.
- Suspect No. 2: Black male, 40 years-of-age, 5’7”-5’9”, thin build, wearing a dark baseball style cap, dark jacket and jeans with a design on both rear pockets, possibly a skull.
Please note that last part of the second description. One of the burglars is wearing fancy designer jeans! Or, possibly, knockoffs.
