Prince George's County Police are looking for three men who robbed the ZIPS Dry Cleaners on Route 1 as the store was opening Saturday morning.

The three men were all displaying black handguns as they entered the rear door of the store, located in the 7200 block of Baltimore Avenue, just as it was opening for business at about 6:30 a.m., a university crime alert reported.

The suspects then stole cash from the register and property from employees before all three fled the scene in a burgundy Jeep Cherokee with Maryland license plate 545M727.

Police said Monday that the vehicle has not yet been located and they did not know whether it had been stolen prior to the incident. Details about how much cash and what property was stolen were not released.

The first suspect is described as an 18-to 25-year-old black man, 5 feet 8 to 10 inches tall with a medium complexion who was wearing a biker jacket with black and white stripes, blue skull cap and gray sweatpants. Another suspect is described as the same age and height with a dark complexion, wearing a gray jacket and black jeans. The third suspect is also described as the same age and height with a medium complexion and dark clothing.
