Police have released this photo depicting a man who held up a Wendy’s in Rib Mountain, Wisconsin last week. After brandishing a gun and tying up two employees, the Ninja Turtle bandit and an accomplice made off with money from the restaurant’s coffers.

This perpetrator in a half shell is described as 5’10” and stocky. It’s unclear if witnesses have indicated whether the robber was “cool but rude” or “a party dude.”

Could this be the case of a fast-food-fueled turf war? Sadly, this isn’t the first time a beloved scifi character has turned to a life of armed robbery.

CORRECTION: In an earlier version of this post, we incorrectly noted that the Turtle Bandit had robbed a McDonald’s. This error was due to the town’s savory name — Rib Mountain — which had clouded your correspondent’s faculties.
