Indianapolis police are searching for two gunmen who they believe killed two restaurant workers during a robbery.

Investigators released surveillance video yesterday showing two men wearing hooded sweatshirts with handguns entering Jordan's Fish and Chicken on the city's east side, jumping over the counter and running out a couple minutes later.

Police Maj. Richard Riddle says investigators believe the shootings happened just before 11 PM Tuesday. A relative called police about 1 AM yesterday after finding the two slain men.

Restaurant co-owner Ameer Saadeh tells The Indianapolis Star that both men were employees. Jordan's Foreign Ministry says the two killed were Jordanian citizens.
 

The state-run Petra news agency quoted Foreign Ministry spokesman Sabah Rafei as saying the Jordanian Embassy in Washington was working with local authorities over the slayings.
