(WSB Radio) -- Dunwoody police have one suspect in custody and are searching for another after an armed robbery Tuesday night at the McDonald's on Cotillion Drive near I-285. 

It appears, but has not been confirmed, that the suspects in the McDonald's robbery were responsible for a similar holdup Monday night at the Burger King on Chamblee-Dunwoody Road.  The two fast food outlets are less than three miles apart.  Dunwoody Police Detective Kelly Gobely tells WSB's Mark Alewine "we have to compare the surveillance video from the Burger King with the male we have in custody and to the video at McDonald's."

Both suspects were caught in the act when two Dunwoody officers responded to a 9-1-1 call about a robbery at the restaurant around 10:30 p.m. Tuesday.  When they spotted the officers, the masked men exited through the back door, jumped a fence and ran across all lanes of I-285.  A K-9 unit caught one of the suspects, but the other got away.  He's described as a black male, 5-8 to 5-11, 175 to 200 pounds.  He was last seen wearing a dark colored Dickies jump suit and was armed with a silver or grey revolver.

None of the McDonald's employees were hurt in Tuesday night's robbery.

  • robbery
    You are tired of it ? then get a Ga. Firearms License and carry a gun. The only way to reduce crime is to reduce the number of criminals. Illegal immigration is down 23% and abortion is helping. The most effective way to reduce crime is by armed citizens shooting criminals.
  • Robbery
    Perhaps these thugs should be investigated for the killing of a young man (chef in training) who was gunned down in the condos right by that McDonald's some time ago. He lived there and never made it home.So very sad.
  • Dunwoody McD's Robbery
    Black Males robbing someone? Say it ain't so. Now to respond to "OK'S" comment. Yes I'm tired of both. Tired of hearing that innocent hard working people are being prayed upon by sorry low class BLACK MALE THUGS who feel they have a right to stick a gun in someone's face & demand whatever they want.
  • Description of Perpetrator
    See New Century Foundation's study, the Color of Crime. Now tell me what our Black Leaders are doing except feathering their own nests?
  • tired of what
    What are you tired of? Robberies or black males?
  • Just amazing
