Video: Newark Airport Food Court Robbery

Video fight day continues: police released footage of a violent attack at a food court at Newark Liberty Airport today. In the video, two masked men assault a service worker with a wrench in the manager's office of the Grain Station store in Terminal A on June 27.

After beating and kicking the worker, the masked men restrained, gagged and bound him with duct tape, escaping with $20,000. Police are offering a reward for any information on the thieves: “We had leads, canvassed the area, and are now widening the search,” said Port Authority spokeswoman Jennifer Friedberg. You can see the security footage of the scuffle below.

Can't be two hard to find these guys. Both shops are after security (http://www.panynj.gov/airports... and I'm pretty sure they're not going to let a passenger through with a crescent wrench.

On the other hand, how many workers have access to tools and could throw on a jumpsuit or uniform to cover their clothes after they left the room?
