HOUSTON -- Five southwest Houston restaurants were broken into within a 30-minute span early Monday, officials told KPRC Local 2.

Houston police said a Hispanic man broke into Berryhill Baja Grill, Tokyohana, Buffalo Grille, Chez Beignets and Molina's Cantina on Buffalo Speedway near Bissonnet Street at about 3 a.m.

The burglar broke windows and stole an unknown amount of cash from the restaurants, police said. Investigators said the burglar used either a mallet or a foot to break the glass.

Detectives said the burglar was last seen wearing a light blue shirt.

Police searched for fingerprints and are using surveillance video to try to determine the burglar's identity.

The burglar got away from the scenes on a bicycle, police said.
