NEWARK, Del. (CBS) — Two Arby’s employees are recovering from their injuries following a robbery at the fast-food chain in Newark, Delaware, Saturday night, Delaware State Police said.
DSP investigators responded to the Arby’s in the Liberty Plaza/Possum Park Mall on Capitol Trail in Newark for a reported robbery just before 10 p.m.
According to police, a man wearing a black hoodie and ski mask allegedly entered the restaurant, moved behind the counter and sprayed a “chemical agent” on an Arby’s employee. While the suspect was spraying the chemical agent, police say he forced another employee to a different area of the restaurant.
The suspect then stole an “undisclosed” amount of money from a safe before running from the restaurant.
State troopers searched the area for the robbery suspect but could not find him, DSP said.
Investigators said the Arby’s employees suffered minor injuries.
It’s unclear at this time what the chemical agent used in the robbery was.
Anyone with information related to this robbery investigation or suspect is asked to contact Detective D. Armstrong by calling (302) 365-8440. Tipsters can also relay information to police by sending a Facebook message to Delaware State Police or by calling Delaware Crime Stoppers at 1-800-847-3333.

DOVER — Following decisive wins in both preliminary legs, Primo Maschio dug deep to head off Lew Not Lou for a 1:52.3 triumph in the $110,000 Delaware Standardbred Breeders’ Fund (DSBF) series championship for 3-year-old male pacers on Thursday, Dec. 18, at Bally’s Dover.
Primo Maschio and driver Trae Porter landed second-over on the first turn behind Shore Not Beach (driven by Pat Berry), who worked to clear early leader Lew Not Lou (Jason Thompson) for the lead at the end of a :27 first quarter. Left uncovered off the first turn, Primo Maschio drove on to assume control of the terms with a circuit to go, and the Badlands Hanover-Primadonna gelding rolled to the half in :55.
Up the backstretch and through the far turn, Primo Maschio faced sustained pressure from Lew Not Lou, who re-emerged from third to force a :28.2 third quarter and pose an even bigger threat off the home turn.
“I was a little worried,” said Porter of Lew Not Lou taking aim at Primo Maschio off the corner. “He got to my saddle pad, but as soon as we got to the top of the stretch, my colt dug in deeper. He’s such a nice horse.”
Primo Maschio kept Lew Not Lou a neck at bay while Shore Not Beach stayed on from the pocket to finish third, just a length shy of the top pair.
Walter Callahan trains Primo Maschio, now a 19-time winner with $414,618 in earnings from 27 career starts, for Forrest Bartlett. As the overwhelming 1-10 favorite, Primo Maschio paid $2.20 to win.
