Police want you to take action against crime and find the armed thieves who held up an Arby's restaurant located at 100 Arthur Way in Newport News. 

Police say a manager told them one of the employees went to the back door to take out the trash when he was approached by two armed, masked men.

They say the men forced the employee back inside the restaurant. Once inside, police say the men forced the manager at gunpoint to open the safe and made two other employees lay face down on the floor. 

Another employee was inside at the time mopping the floor. 

If you know anything that could help police, call the Crime Line at 1-888-LOCK-U-UP.
