Two suspects tied up the employees of a Sunnyside cell phone store during an armed robbery last month before taking off with cash and electronics, police said.

The incident occurred about 9 p.m. on Dec. 19 at a T-Mobile store on Queens Boulevard near 46th Street, according to the NYPD.

The two male suspects entered the business after it was closed, displayed guns and ordered employees to the rear of the store where they were zip-tied, police said. They then removed cash and electronics, and fled the store.

No injuries were reported, the NYPD said.

Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at (800) 577-TIPS (8477). The public can also submit their tips by logging onto the Crime Stoppers website or can text their tips to CRIMES (274637), then enter TIP577. All calls are strictly confidential.
