WASHINGTON — Prince George’s County Police think the same three men have been involved in three separate robberies over the last few weeks, and they’re hoping you can help track them down.

All three of the men are caught on a video police have released of a Dec. 5 robbery of the Burger King at 3933 Bladensburg Rd. in Colmar Manor.

The three men walk in together around 10:50 a.m. Police say the one who heads back outside is serving as a lookout. Then you see one of the men point a gun at a cashier. He and another man jump over the counter to grab some cash, then get away.

Check out the footage:

Prince George’s County Police say the men are also suspects in the Nov. 21 robbery of the Wendy’s at 6425 Sargent Rd. in Hyattsville and the Dec. 18 robbery of the Family Dollar at 2201 Varnum Rd. in Mount Rainier.

The first suspect is around 5 feet 4 inches tall, and is described as “older.” The second man is around 6 feet tall, and is said to be in his 40s. The third is about 5 feet six inches tall, also in his 40s. All three men are black.

Police ask anyone who recognizes the men, or who has any information about the robberies, to call 301-772-4905.

You can also give an anonymous tip through Crime Solvers at 886-411-8477. There is a reward of up to $1,000 for the tip that leads to the arrest and indictment of the men.
