Nutley Restaurant Hit By Dine-And-Dashers: $92 Bill Unpaid, Cops Say

NUTLEY, NJ — Nutley police say that a local eatery was hit by dine-and-dash patrons who ran out on the bill last month.

According to the Nutley Police Department, officers responded to a restaurant on Franklin Avenue on Sept. 30 after receiving a report about nine customers who ran out on the check.

The alleged dine-and-dashers made their escape through the back door, but not before the pursuing manager and some workers were able to identify three of them - a male and two females in their mid-20s - who fled the scene in a white vehicle, police said.

The bill came to $92, police stated.
