An arrest was made in connection with a burglary at a Bayside coffee shop, police said Monday.
However, the NYPD said investigation was still ongoing and the Queens DA said the arrest of the current suspect had been sealed.
A 38-year-old man from Auburndale was arrested and charged with burglary Saturday after he was allegedly captured on video footage stealing thousands from a safe within the Oasis Cafe Aug. 11, the NYPD said.
The Oasis Cafe, at 196-30 Northern Blvd., is known for its Cappaccino Freddo, a customer said. At 3 a.m. the day of the crime, the suspect allegedly entered the cafe through an unlocked rear door, made his way through a locked interior door and stole $26,000 in cash and $4,000 in checks from the safe, which was also unsecured, police said.
