By WYDaily Staff Friday, September 16, 2011

James City County police are investigating the armed robbery of a fast food restaurant Thursday night.

Police say two men armed with handguns entered the McDonald's at 9193 Barhamsville Rd. at 9:14 p.m., then ordered six employees to the floor. One suspect took the manager to the back of the store and ordered her to open the safe, while the second suspect ordered another employee to open the cash registers.

Both suspects fled the store in separate vehicles. One car is described as an older model, possibly a Toyota Corolla with a Virginia license plate that begins with the letter 'Y'. The second vehicle is described as a 2007 black Cadillac sedan. Both vehicles were last seen traveling west on Richmond Road toward New Kent County at a high rate of speed.

The first suspect, who drove the black sedan, is described as a black male, about 5’11” tall and 25-35 years old. He wore all-black clothing with red trim, a black baseball cap, Air Force One shoes and blue latex gloves.

The second suspect, who drove the gold sedan, is described as a black male, about 6' tall and 25-35 years old with a goatee. He wore a black sweat suit with red trim, a New York Yankees baseball hat, black Air Force One shoes and blue latex gloves. His face was partially covered with a stocking.

James City County Police are also looking for a white male who entered the business wearing clear plastic gloves shortly before the robbery occurred. He used the restroom, then left.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Crime Line at 1-888-LOCK-U-UP.
