occurred at the Pizza Hut located in the 6300 block of Sykesville Road,

Sykesville on Friday night.

No one was hurt in the incident, but an undisclosed amount of money was taken by the three black male subjects, who entered the Pizza Hut at about 11 p.m. One of the men was armed with a handgun.

After entering, the subjects ordered the employees and customers to the rear of the business and then told them to lay down on the floor. After that, they demanded money from the employees and the customers.

During the robbery two additional customers entered the business. They were immediately ordered behind the counter and told to lay down.

The suspects demanded money from the two new customers and then fled the business through the front door in an unknown direction. Despite an extensive search of the area, the suspects could not be located.

At the time of the robbery, there were approximately 14 people in the

Pizza Hut. No one was injured during the robbery.

All three suspects were described as black males in their 20's,

approximately 5'10" tall and medium build (approx. 180 lbs). They were

wearing dark colored hooded sweatshirts. The hoods was pulled tight

around their faces. One black male was wearing a dark colored half ski mask

and one black male was wearing a dark colored bandana.
