Authorities have released photos and surveillance video of two suspects who are thought to have burglarized a restaurant in midtown Anchorage fleeing the scene after fire broke out.

The case, called an arson investigation by the Anchorage Police Department, revolves around the burglarizing and subsequent burning of Yakitori Sushi on Tudor Road.

APD says that both suspects are believed to have been injured as a result of the fire.

"Detectives need the public’s help in identifying and/or locating two suspects in this investigation," APD said in a statement Wednesday.
