Wichita police are searching for two suspects wanted in a business robbery.

It happened at The Place Bar, 4859 E. Harry, around 2:30 a.m. Thursday. Police said one employee walked out the back door to empty the trash, when a man approached the victim. The suspect forced the employee to the ground at gun point.

A second suspect walked into the business, and forced a woman into the office. The thief demanded cash and ran out of the building. Both suspects left in a newer model suburban.

The employees were not hurt.

Police are looking for two black men. One suspect was described as a man about 6' tall, weighing 180 lbs., last seen wearing all-black clothing, holding a black handgun.

The second suspect was about 5'9" tall, weighing 150 lbs., wearing a white t-shirt and had a chrome, semi-automatic handgun.

Anyone with information on the robbery should call 911.
