COUNTY MIAMI-DADE, Fla. – Two women attempted to steal a Burger King from Miami-Dade County on Tuesday, but employees refused to hand over money, causing a fight in the kitchen of the fast food restaurant, authorities said.

A witness recorded a video of the fight with a mobile phone.

Detective Christopher Sowerby-Thomas, spokesperson for the Miami-Dade County Police Department, said the women had entered the restaurant located in the 18200 block of the South Dixie Highway, just before 5pm. The women said that they had a rifle, but they never showed any weapon, Sowerby-Thomas said.

The video shows one of the women hopping over the counter and repeatedly beating employees with her fists. At one point, one of the women pushed the cash register at the store counter, angry that the employees did not give her money.

After a protracted fight, the women fled the restaurant empty-handed in a black SUV, Sowerby-Thomas said.

The police are looking for women and asking for help from the public to find them. Anyone with information about the incident is asked to contact Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at 305-471-TIPS.
