Three-Toothed Man Stole Shellfish From Restaurant, Cops Say

Unidentified man reportedly looking for kitchen job at Nutley eatery, walked off with $100 worth of shrimp and lobster.

A man walked into a busy restaurant looking for a job and walked out with $100 worth of seafood, Nutley cops said.

On Saturday night, a man walked into the back door of Meal on Kingsland Street, asking about a kitchen job. Restaurant employees described the man as white, wearing a grey hooded sweatshirt and black sweatpants and missing all but three of his teeth.

A manager at Meal said that the man came during dinner service on Saturday night and they consequently did not have time to interview him for the job. When left alone in the kitchen, the man reportedly grabbed $100 worth of shrimp and lobster tails the chefs were prepping for meals and walked out of the restaurant.
