SPOKANE -- Spokane Police are looking for two or three men they say tied up an employee at a North Spokane Burger King, then robbed the restaurant.

Police say an employee was taking out the trash when the suspects approached him and tied him up with duct tape around 11:45 p.m. Wednesday. This was at the Burger King on Division & Nora.

They say those suspects, who were reportedly armed with a gun and knife, then went inside the restaurant, which had two other employees inside. One of those employees was hurt in some kind of fight. That person was taken to the hospital for treatment of what we're told are minor injuries.

Police say the suspects got away with an undisclosed amount of cash. Officers say they are still unsure due to multiple witness reports whether there were 2 or 3 suspects.

Officers called in a K-9 unit to help track them, but we're unsuccessful. We're told there's not a good description of the suspects to pass along to viewers because they covered their faces with masks.

Still, if you have any information that could help police in their investigation, call Crime Check. (509)456-2233.
