Police say a pair of armed men robbed a casino in Billings and made off with an undisclosed amount of money.

Billings Police Sgt. Matt Brewer says no one was hurt when the Montana Nugget Casino was held up about 10:30 p.m. Friday.

The Billings Gazette reports (http://bit.ly/1HoQWHu ) that employees told officers that two males wearing all-black clothing and ski masks and armed with handguns entered the casino, demanding money from an employee.

After receiving the money, both men fled on foot. Police were unable to identify or apprehend either of the men.

Police say both suspects appear to be either Hispanic or Native American males in their early 20s, 5-foot, 8-inches tall, about 140 pounds, with athletic builds.

The investigation is ongoing.
