15 Sep
Summary
- Suspect in scuba suit robbed restaurant of approximately $10,000.
- The robber spray-painted cameras and tied up two employees.
- No arrests have been made one year after the daring aquatic escape.
A year has passed since a restaurant in Disney Springs was targeted in a daring robbery by an individual wearing a scuba suit. The suspect managed to flee with around $10,000 in cash, making a unique escape by swimming away from the scene.
The incident took place last September after the restaurant's closing hours. As the manager was preparing to secure the cash, the suspect entered the premises. Security cameras were spray-painted to obstruct evidence before the employees were confronted and tied up in an office.
Following the robbery, deputies traced the suspect's path to the nearby lake, but the trail ultimately ended there. As of the one-year mark since the event, law enforcement officials have confirmed that no arrests have been made and there are no suspects currently in custody. The case remains unsolved.
