Philadelphia Police are seeking information about a pair of men who robbed the McDonald’s restaurant at W. Allegheny and Henry avenues early Tuesday morning at gunpoint.

According to the Northwest Detective Division, the unknown robbers entered the location in the Allegheny West neighborhood around 6:15 a.m. with their faces covered.

One wielded a pair of handguns and served as a lookout while the other jumped the counter and loaded cash from the register into a dark-colored duffel bag, according to police.

Making off with $200 in cash, the pair fled west on Allegheny Avenue in a white vehicle that was “possibly a taxi cab with a clear light on top, blue writing on the door possibly the letter ‘C,'” police said.
