Two men robbed a food truck using a gun and knife in a Big Lots! parking lot Wednesday night, deputies said.

Deputies are continuing to investigate a robbery that occurred in the parking lot of the Big Lots! on SW Tualatin-Valley Highway and 185th Avenue.

The victim flagged down Washington County deputies and told them that the men robbed the truck a little before 11:30 p.m. and got away with about $500 and a cell phone, investigators said.

One of the men was armed with a knife and the other was armed with a pistol and both ran northbound on 185th Avenue., deputies said.

A K-9 unit searched for the two men but the robbers weren't found.

The robbers were described as Hispanic men, about 5 feet 5 inches tall, weighing about 150 to 160 pounds.

Both men were wearing gray hooded sweatshirts with bandanas around their faces at the time of the robbery.

Anyone with information is encouraged to call Washington County sheriff’s detectives at 503-846-2700.
