Police: Gun Shot During Pizza Shop
Robbery- East Haven Police Search For Two Men
EAST HAVEN. -- An armed man fired a gunshot
inside the Domino's Pizza shop on Route 80 late Saturday night
as another man looked on, police said.
A store employee told police that one
of the men brandished what appeared to be a sawed-off shotgun
before going behind the counter and demanding money from the
safe at about 11:45 p.m.
East Haven investigators said one of the
men dragged the clerk to a back office and threatened to shoot
him if he didn't provide money. Police said the other man
acted as a lookout. At some point, police said one shot was
fired, but no one was hit.
Police said the clerk struggled with the
armed man, who left in a silver or white Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Police did not specify how the second man left the scene.
No money was taken.
Police described the armed man as Hispanic,
in his early 20s, about 5 feet 10 inches tall and about 170
pounds. He was last seen wearing a camouflage coat with orange-colored
lining, a black knit hat, a mask and gloves.
The second man was also described as
Hispanic, in his early teens, about 5 feet 5 inches tall,
120 pounds.
