Toledo police are seeking information about the robbery Wednesday of a cash-advance loan business in which an undisclosed amount of cash was taken.

Authorities say a man with a blue-steel handgun entered Pay Day Loans in the 2600 block of Dorr Street at 2:45 p.m., ordered two employees to a restroom, and shut them in. Once he got the cash, he fled with it in an unknown direction, police said.

The man was described as about 6 feet, 1 inch tall and 180 pounds. Anyone with information is asked to call the Crime Stopper program.
