Tucson Police Department is asking for assistance finding a gunman who robbed several employees at a restaurant in June.

In the June 12 incident, the gunman entered through a rear gate he forced access to and confronted employees with a handgun, the department said.

The gunman ordered an employee to duct tape all co-workers before they were forced into a cooler.

Their cell phones along with several thousand dollars were taken from the restaurant at 5220 S. Nogales Highway.

The gunman fled in a red Chevrolet S-10 Extended Cab with a white or silver toolbox in the truck bed, the department said.

Anyone with information about the incident or the man's identity is asked to call 88-CRIME, an anonymous tipster line.
