Report: Anyway Cafe robbed at knifepoint

A knife-wielding man made off with a bag of cash during a noon-time robbery Monday at the Anyway Cafe on Second Street at Second Avenue, the Post reported.

Per the Post:

A thief seemed to know what he was looking for when he entered an East Village restaurant and demanded at knife-point that a worker give him “the money from the bottom,” police said Tuesday.

The crook entered the Anyway Cafe ... and barked his demands at a female employee.

When she walked behind the bar, the man got more specific, demanding: “Give me the money from the bottom!” according to cops.

The employee handed over a white garbage bag and white envelopes containing cash, cops said.

The Post only had this description of the suspect: "25 years old, standing about 5-foot-5 and ... wearing a red jacket."

  1. They'd have a better description of the thief if he was a dog or an iPhone.
