The University of Arizona Police Department asked for help identifying two men involved in an alleged armed robbery by issuing a UA Clery Timely Warning Notice on Jan. 31.  

UAPD responded to the alleged crime on 1064 E. Lowell Street, also known as the Environment and Natural Resources 2 Building, on Jan. 26 at 7:04 p.m.  

Police say the suspects were two Hispanic males, both about 16 to 22 years old. Both men had a thin build and were estimated to weigh about 140 pounds each.  

The men were wearing black backpacks and black bandanas covering their faces.  One was photographed wearing a maroon hoodie, and the other was wearing a black hoodie.
