TAMPA — Deputies are looking for a pair who robbed a Tampa Internet cafe at gunpoint early Thursday.
At about 12:30 a.m., two men walked up to Sunset Internet Cafe at 14220 Nebraska Ave.
A man who was inside the business noticed them approach and tried to casually walk out, deputies say. But one of the suspects hit him on the head with a gun and told him to go back inside.
Once inside, the two men robbed the business, and one of them pistol-whipped a second person.
Deputies do not have surveillance video, but they describe one of the suspects as a black male between 22 and 29 years old, about 5-foot-6, with a thin build. He was wearing a white mask and dark clothing.
The second suspect is described as a black male in his 20s, about 6 feet tall, also with a thin build. He was wearing a green mask and dark clothing.
Both men were armed with handguns, deputies say.
The Sheriff's Office asks that anyone with information call deputies at (813) 247-8200 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-873-8477.
