Times Wire Reports
Police in Hoboken, N.J., say a man posing as a waiter collected $186 in cash from diners at two restaurants and walked out with the money.
The man, said to be in his 20s and wearing a dark button-down shirt, yellow tie and khaki pants, reportedly asked two women if they needed anything else before paying. They said no and handed him $90. About two hours later he approached three women dining at another restaurant, took $96 and never returned with the change.
