today are distributing a photo to other police agencies of the two people suspected in Tuesday's armed robbery at the West Nyack Motor Lodge.
The two-person team held up the motel at 110 N. Route 303, West Nyack, taking cash and then fleeing toward the nearby Palisades Center mall.
The incident took place about 2:10 a.m., with the motel clerk telling police that one of the men in the attack held a black, semi-automatic pistol on him while the second man went behind the motel's front desk to take cash.

- A black male, in his late teens or early 20s, about 5-foot-10, wearing a hooded sweatshirt, dark jeans and carrying the black handgun.
- A black male, in his late teens or early 20s, about 6-foot-2, wearing a hooded sweatshirt and dark jeans.
