Two masked gunmen tie up Safeway workers in Clark County
by Stephen Beaven, The Oregonian Sunday May 31, 2009, 7:21 AM
The Clark County Sheriff's Office is investigating a robbery in which two masked gunmen tied up five employees at a Safeway store, police said this morning.
Deputies were dispatched to the store at 11696 N.E. 76th St. at 12:14 a.m. today after the employees freed themselves. None of the workers were harmed.
They told police the store was closed and locked at 11:00 p.m. Saturday and that about 10 minutes later, one of the employees was confronted by the gunmen in a break room. This worker was forced to page colleagues, each of whom was then bound with duct tape, according to the sheriff's office.
The gunmen forced one of the workers to open a safe and a cash register before being taken back to the break room. About 45 minutes later, the workers freed themselves and called police.
The store was searched but the gunmen had already left.
Anyone with any information about the robbery was asked to call the sheriff's office tip line at 877-CRIME11.
