Police say three armed suspects robbed a Tempe, Ariz., McDonalds early Thursday morning.
The suspects reportedly held employees in the restaurant at gunpoint, forced a manager to open a safe and took an unknown amount of money. Afterward, the suspects locked the employees in a freezer and ran out.
"They came in with guns, a very brazen attack on this business," said Sgt. Mike Pooley of the Tempe Police Department, told AZFamily.com.
