PORTLAND, Maine — Two suspects are still at large after they robbed a pizzeria late Friday, according to police.

Portland police Lt. Gary Rogers said two black men entered a Little Ceasar’s on Brighton Avenue just before 11:30 p.m. as an employee was closing for the night.

One of the suspects was wearing a hooded sweatshirt and a mask, Rogers said. The employee was punched “three to four times,” he added, while the suspects fled with cash and the evening’s receipts.

A police dog tracked the suspects as far as Westbrook but lost the scent, Rogers said.

    1. It probably wouldn’t be politically correct to release the footage. Might upset certain groups of people.
