Columbia Police are looking for the men who robbed a business at gunpoint Tuesday morning.

Police say at 10:20 a.m., three men walked into Columbia Coin and Stamp on Bernadette Drive and demanded money from the clerk.

Police said the men took money from the store and then fled from the store. Two of the men left in a brown Chevy suburban heading east on Ash Street. Another fled on foot headed west. A fourth suspect stayed in the car during the robbery.

A K-9 unit was called in to search for the suspects.

Police desribed the men as black males in their 20s, about 5'9'' and 175 pounds. They were all wearing black coats and pants.
