Several patrons of Club 1400 in Harrisburg were robbed Monday night by two men who were armed and wearing masks.

Patrol officers were dispatched to 1400 North Third Street at 11:40 p.m. after an employee of the bar called police. According to police, the employee saw a tall, masked man carrying a gun enter the bar through the front door. The robber fired a shot in the ceiling and told everyone to get on the floor. A second robber, also armed, entered through a side door.

The bar employee was able to run past the second robber and contact the authorities, police said.

Patrons told police they were forced to the floor and ordered to hand over valuables such as money and jewelry. There were about 25 people in the bar, police said. No one was harmed.

The first suspect was described as a heavy-set black male, 6'4" and was wearing a red bandanna to cover the lower part of his face. The second suspect was described as a very thin black male, short and was also wearing a red bandanna.

Police are investigating the incident. Anyone with information should call Sgt. Thomas Carter at 717-255-6586 or email him at
