Buckhead Waffle House Customers Robbed At Gunpoint Monday

Two male suspects robbed three male customers at gunpoint at a Buckhead Waffle House early Monday morning.

The men stole $40,000 worth of valuables from the men at the Waffle House near Pharr and Piedmont roads around 6:30 a.m., according to WSB-TV.

The victims sat down after coming from Room Service Lounge nearby when two men walked into the restaurant. One of the suspects pulled out a black semiautomatic handgun and pressed it against the ribs of one of the victims and demanded his gold chain, which was described as a gold medallion in the shape of "DC" in diamonds, valued at $6,000.

The suspects also took a Rolex watch that was also covered in diamonds and valued at $20,000, a Rolex Submariner valued at $12,000 and two iPhone 5  cell phones at $1,000.

The suspects then left the Waffle House and headed toward Maple Drive in the direction of Peachtree Road.
