A Florida McDonald's drive-thru window became the scene of a Hamburglary recently when a thief held up the place.

It happened in Ocala, where surveillance footage shows what appears to be a male dressed in all black suspiciously waiting behind an SUV in the drive-thru line.

When the car pulls forward, the man forces the window back open and leans half his body inside the restaurant.

The video appears to show him then brandish a gun at the cashier's face while reportedly demanding the woman "give me the money."

The terrified cashier first said she didn't know how to get the money drawer open before attempting to do so. She then ran away to safety.

Undaunted, the crook simply rips away the entire cash drawer and flees.

According to WKMG, police said the man could be seen hopping into a gray car moments later.
