COLORADO SPRINGS, COLO. -- Colorado Springs Police officers are looking for two men who stole cash and lottery tickets from a gas station Wednesday night.

Employees at the Diamond Shamrock on Arlington Drive told officers two men with grey hoodies and masks over their faces came into the store around 10:09 p.m. Both had guns and left with the cash and tickets.

One is a 6' - 6'2" black man with a heavy build. He wore the hoodie with blue or black jeans and a ski mask. The other is a 5'10" - 6' man with a medium build and dark pants.

Nobody was hurt.

Both fled on foot, hoping to dodge police...and maybe get lucky with the stolen lotto tickets on the only date of the year that is numerically sequential.
