Boloco Releases Video Of Bethesda Break-In

Someone burglarized the Boloco on Bethesda Row a few weeks ago and the fast casual burrito and smoothie chain is looking for help finding the suspect.

The Boston-based company, known for its creative use of social media, released the above surveillance camera footage of the burglar with annotations.

“Wow…nice guess on that safe code,” reads one. “Sweet hat,” reads another.

The burglary happened at 2:50 a.m. on May 27. Boloco opened last July at 4930 Elm St.

The video shows the burglar crawling under a shelf and moving a small cabinet to open the store’s safe and steal an unspecified amount of cash. The burglar wasn’t as lucky with the drawers in the front of the restaurant. There was no money there.

At 3:15 a.m., almost a half hour after the burglary started, the suspect leaves through the front door on Elm Street.

Boloco is asking anyone with information to email buzz@boloco.com.
