Colorado Springs police are looking for a man they say held up a local Pizza Hut employee Friday night around 11 p.m.

Police say the employee was outside of the business on Star Ranch Road, smoking a cigarette, when a man approached him from behind.

"The victim said the next sound he heard was the slide to a semi automatic handgun being pulled back and released," police say in a report.

The suspect told the employee to, "Take him to the money."

The man left the area with an unknown amount of cash. He's described as a black man in his early 20s, 6-0 tall with a heavy build, black hair, and he was last seen wearing a grey hooded-sweatshirt and a blue ski mask. If you have any information please call the Colorado Springs Police Department (444-7000) or Crime Stoppers (634-STOP or 7867).
