Around 2 a.m., the King County Sheriffs Office responded to the McDonalds in the 14100 block of SE Petrovitsky Rd. after employees were robbed at gunpoint. An employee had just helped a customer in the drive thru when two armed suspects rushed toward the drive thru window, forced the window open and climbed through the window.
One of the suspects struck an employee in the side of her face with a handgun as she tried to push the suspect back out the window. The suspects then forced the three employees toward the backroom at gun point. One suspect ordered the manager to open the safe while the other ordered the other employees to lay on the floor.
The suspects took an undisclosed amount of money and fled.
