Surveillance video caught two men holding up employees at a popular bar in the Fairmount section of the city last week.
Philadelphia Police said two men entered the Urban Saloon on Fairmount Avenue around 2:30 a.m. Thursday and demanded money from four employees closing up for the night.
The suspect armed with a handgun held the employees in the bar while the second suspect removed an unknown amount of money from a register, reported police. Both men fled by foot east on Fairmount Avenue.
Luckily no one was hurt.
