Police are looking for several suspects after a group of heavily armed men entered a Toronto club early Sunday morning and robbed approximately 20 people of cash and personal effects.

About six to eight masked men entered the second-storey club operating as a gaming house on Spadina Ave. near Dundas St. at 3:45 a.m., police said.

The robbers sprayed the patrons with pepper spray before fleeing the club through a rear emergency exit, with a large quantity of cash, police said. The victims were treated for minor eye irritation.

Police are asking anyone with information related to this incident to call Crime Stoppers at 416-222-TIPS.
