RIVIERA BEACH— Authorities are seeking the public's help in identifying a man who robbed a McDonald's on Saturday while wearing a President Barack Obama mask.

Riviera Beach Police say that the man who held employees of the McDonald's at 3551 Broadway at gunpoint with a silver, semi-automatic handgun, was wearing a mask "resembling a likeness" to Obama. He ordered all employees to the back office at 6:21 a.m., and then ordered the manager to open the safe and place the cash in a cloth bag he brought.

At least the armed robber was honest about his intentions. Obama, not so much.

Looks like he's holding a Romney mask under his arm for his getaway.

He didn’t rob the Mcdonald’s. He was only getting his fair share. It was sort of like an involuntary redistribution of wealth ... or big macs... or mcnuggets.

Got to be Mcnuggets based on all of the craziness that seems to revolve around them in other locales.

If they catch the guy, he will be charged with, “armed redistribution of the wealth.”

Sorry MickeyD’s! Welcome to the club of those who have been defrauded by some person pretending to be a man named “Barack Obama”.
