CHICAGO — Police have released photos of two men they say robbed a cellphone store Tuesday in McKinley Park.

At 9:45 a.m., the men walked into a store in the 3100 block of South Ashland Avenue and jumped over the counter, according to a Chicago Police news release. One of the men implied he had a gun.

The men took money and "numerous" cellphones and ran away, police said.

One of the men was in his 20s, black, 5-foot-7 to 5-foot-9 and 140-160 pounds, police said. He wore a black baseball hat, black T-shirt with white letters, blue underwear and black Adidas jogging pants with a white stripe. He had a tattoo that resembled curved lines on the right side of his face going from his eye to his cheek.
