WYOMING, Mich. -- Wyoming Police are searching for suspects in two recent pizza delivery driver robberies.
The incidents happened at 9:45 p.m. Sept. 22 in the 1900 block of Prairie Parkway and 11:26 p.m. Sept. 26 in the area of Burton Street and Godfrey Avenue, according to a release.

The suspect in the first incident is described by police as a black male between 17 and 20 years old, 5 feet 9 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall with a thin build. He was wearing long red shorts, a white tank top and white gloves "similar to gloves that would be worn while playing soccer" at the time of the robbery, according to a release.
Police said that a second suspect "appeared from behind another vehicle" during that robbery.
The first suspect in the Burton and Godfrey area robbery was described as a black male between 18 and 25 years old, roughly 150 lbs wearing a dark-colored sweatshirt and blue jeans. He was also believed to be wearing gloves during the robbery.
