COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- Colorado Springs police are looking for four suspects who allegedly robbed an 80-year-old woman at gunpoint early Wednesday morning.

According to police, the suspects entered the woman's trailer at the Quail Hill Mobile Home Park in the 5100 block of Galley Road and demanded money. They took money, a credit card, and the keys to her car, then fled out the back door. One of them had a gun.

Police tried using a canine to track the suspects but were unsuccessful.

Shortly after the robbery, someone tried using the stolen credit card at a 7-11 store on Astrozon Boulevard.

Police called additional resources to aid the woman, who was not harmed.

Police said they are continuing the investigation.
