AUBURN – With one arrest made, Auburn police are seeking two other male suspects in connection with the armed robbery of McDonald’s early Saturday morning.

Two men armed with baseball bats entered the restaurant around 2:26 a.m. and forced the employees into a back room, according to a news release from the Auburn Police Department.

The men, wearing masks to conceal their faces, took an undisclosed amount of cash and then fled the restaurant.

No one was harmed during the robbery.

When police reviewed the restaurant’s surveillance system, employee Andrew Gage, 19, was seen unlocking a door and letting the two armed men in.

Gage was arrested and charged with robbery later in the day Saturday, according to the press release. He is being held at the Androscoggin County Jail on $15,000 cash bail.

Still sought are 24-year-old Daniel G. Duhamel and a man named Chris, who may also go by the street name Dong. According to the press release, police have yet to learn the latter suspect’s last name.

“Detectives have sought and received an arrest warrant for Daniel G. Duhamel charging him with robbery,” the press release states.

Duhamel, an acquaintance of Gage’s, is described as a white male, 5-feet, 10-inches tall, and 180 pounds with a shaved head. He may be driving a red 1992 Honda Civic with Maine license plates.

Duhamel may be in the company of the second suspect, Chris, who is described as a white male, 6-feet, 4-inches tall and 250 pounds.

Police are asking that anyone with information on the whereabouts of the suspects or the full identity of Chris call them at 784-7332.
