STATE COLLEGE — State College police are looking for three men caught on camera robbing a seventh-floor downtown apartment with a semi-automatic gun around 4:40 p.m. Friday.

Police say three college-aged men were seen entering and exiting the Beaver Terrace building owned by Associated Realty Property Management, at 456 E. Beaver Ave. The men made off with three cell phones and an unknown amount of cash. It is unknown how they got into the building or if there is security.

The suspects are described as:

•a black man, with a heavy build, wearing a tan hooded jacket and a Washington Nationals baseball cap.

•a black man armed with a black semi-automatic pistol. Thin build, wearing a dark jacket and a black Pittsburgh Pirates hat with a blue “P.”

•a black man with a heavy build, wearing a dark hooded coat and a Florida Marlins baseball cap.

Police say the men were seen leaving in a medium to small size four-door vehicle, possibly similar to a Hyundai Elantra or Pontiac Grand-Am or G6.
