The suspects then proceeded to ransack the restaurant throwing chairs and trash cans. The suspects also took a cellphone from a person on scene. The suspects fled the scene in a vehicle without their extra cheese. Please see attached photos of the suspects. Det. Phillip Thomas is the investigating detective.
