Hipster hamburglar breaks into US burger shop to cook a cheeseburger
Police in the US capital are searching for a man caught on CCTV breaking into a hamburger restaurant to cook a cheeseburger before fleeing.
Succumbing to his foodie cravings, the hipster hamburglar followed a deliveryman into a Five Guys hamburger store in Washington DC.
As soon as the deliveryman left, the man immediately switched on the grill before walking around the kitchen to grab ingredients and prep - even appearing to wash his hands.
The Metropolitan Police Department has released the video of the 5am March 18 break-in in the hope members of the public will recognise the man.
He grabbed a soft drink and threw some meat patties on to cook and went about making himself a standard cheeseburger.
The man, wearing a fedora and short-sleeved T-shirt over a longer shirt, appeared to be chatting on the phone while making his meal.

No money or other items were reportedly stolen.
