Cairo Police are asking for the public’s assistance in helping them solve an armed robbery that happened over the weekend as two restaurant employees closed for the night. The workers were leaving Domino’s Pizza, 550 U.S. 84E, just after 1 a.m. Sunday when the incident occurred.
A man wearing a covering over his face and dark colored clothing walked up to the employees in the parking lot and demanded money.
