Police are looking for two men suspected of an assault during an attempted armed robbery in the western Las Vegas Valley.
The men entered the business around 3 p.m. Wednesday on the 2000 block of South Rainbow Boulevard, near West Oakey Boulevard, according to a Metropolitan Police Department release.
The men, pretending to be customers, approached the victim, showed a gun and then hit the victim with it. They demanded money and items when the victim began screaming, attracting the attention of employees at a nearby business. The men left without getting any money or property.
Both suspects are described as black males, 30 to 35 years old, 6-foot-2 with a large build. The first man had tattoos on his arms, and was last seen wearing a tan hat, black T-shirt and brown shorts. The other had long dreadlocks and last seen wearing a black T-shirt and black shorts.
