Allegheny County police were trying to track down several gunmen who robbed 50 people last week at a poker tournament at the Wilkins Township Italian American Club.

Three or four gunmen, described only as white with slim builds, burst into the club last Thursday and made about 50 people get on the floor as they robbed participants at the tournament, police said.

The men took money from the patrons as well as off the tables.

The suspects fired shots into the ceiling and the walls. No one was injured.
