LIVONIA (WWJ) - The search is on for a group of robbers who have been targeting fast-food restaurants in Metro Detroit.
Over the past two weeks, at least four fast-food restaurants across the area have been robbed shortly after opening for business for the day and police believe the same suspects are behind the crimes.

The suspects in the Livonia and Auburn Hills robberies were caught on surveillance videos fleeing in the same vehicle -- an older model maroon or red Ford Explorer with dark bottom trim and running boards. Witnesses also reported a vehicle matching the same description fleeing from the Milford robbery.
Security cameras captured images of the suspects, one of whom was carrying a blue backpack during the Milford and Auburn Hills robberies. The suspects are described as black males in their 20s, with hoods pulled up over their heads and their faces covered.
It's unclear how much cash the suspects took in the Livonia and Independence Township robberies, but they got about $200 from the Milford robbery. The employees in the Auburn Hills robbery refused to give the suspects money and said they were calling police, which sent the suspects running.
Anyone with information should call Livonia police at 734-466-2330, Milford police at 248-684-1815 or Auburn Hills police at 248-370-9460.
