PAWTUCKET, R.I. -- The police are searching for two gunmen who held up a Pawtucket Credit Union early Thursday afternoon.
Two men carrying guns and empty bags walked into the credit union at 571 Smithfield Ave. around 12:30 p.m. and robbed the tellers, said Pawtucket Police Maj. Arthur Martins.
They filled the bags with money and fled out the rear door, he said.
Police released surveillance photos in hopes of identifying the suspects, who concealed their faces with sunglasses and bandannas, wore hats and hooded jackets, and winter gloves.
Police ask anyone with information about the robbery to contact Detective Richard Laforest, (401) 727-9100 ext. 761.
