Authorities are seeking the public's help in identifying a man who robbed a McDonald's on Saturday while wearing a President Barack Obama mask.
Riviera Beach Police say that the man who held employees of the McDonald's at 3551 Broadway at gunpoint with a silver, semi-automatic handgun, was wearing a mask "resembling a likeness" to Obama. He ordered all employees to the back office at 6:21 a.m., and then ordered the manager to open the safe and place the cash in a cloth bag he brought.
Before leaving the restaurant, the man threatened to kill the employees if they did not stay in the office. He then ran from the store in an northeast direction with about $1,000 cash, a written release by Riviera Beach Police said.
The suspect is approximately 6-feet tall, weighs about 170 pounds, and was wearing all-black clothing with white gloves during the robbery.
Anyone with information is asked to call Riviera Beach Police Det. Francisco Aquirre (561) 845-4123 or Crimestoppers of Palm Beach County at (800) 458-TIPS (8477).
No, people, it wasn’t really Obama. Far too much work was involved in this robbery.
Why should he bother, when he can just dip into the tax barrel any time he wants more?
“Man robs Riviera Beach McDonald’s wearing Obama mask”
Note to Riviera Beach: You can that man in the White House, robbing my kids too.
This piker only robbed them.

I was wondering where Barry’s next fund raiser was going to be.
Obama doesn't need to rob he robs the taxpayers enough.
Are they sure it was a mask? Obama robs us and our children every day..so why not McDonalds ?
This fake Obama robbed one store of $1,000.
The real Obama has robbed many, many millions of people of hundreds of billions dollars.
This guy could be in a heap of trouble.
It’s illegal to wear a mask in florida.
