Palm Bay, Florida - Palm Bay police are asking for help to identify four people who stole a briefcase of cash from a bingo hall late Sunday.
The incident occurred at Country Bingo, 4450 U.S. 1, at about 9:15 p.m.
Three masked men went into the north side door of the business, flashing guns and yelling, "this is not a joke, get down this is a robbery," according to Yvonne Martinez, spokeswoman for Palm Bay Police Department.
As patrons and employees dropped to the floor, the suspects went into the office and fled with a briefcase of cash, Martinez said. Police think one man was outside, acting at a lookout.
Police released surveillance video in an effort to generate tips.
"We're hoping somebody can see something in the video, identifiable features," Martinez said. "Maybe someone can help us identify them."
Two of the suspects were wearing gloves.
One man was wearing black cargo-style shorts, a black T-shirt and black ski mask.
Another man was wearing blue shorts with a white stripe, a black T-shirt and a white cloth covering his face. The third suspect worse a black long sleeve T-shirt, black shorts and a black ski mask. The alleged lookout was wearing a black T-shirt and brown shorts.
Officers set a perimeter and searched for the suspects with a police dog but were not able to find them.
Anyone with information should call Crimeline at 800-423-TIPS (8477). Callers can be anonymous and may be eligible for a $1,000 reward.
