Five masked gunmen held up a casino in the French city of Lyon early Sunday and made off with tens of thousands of euros, police said.
The men walked into the "Le Pharaon" casino around 3 am (0100 GMT), fired a shot in the air and proceeded to empty the casino's cash registers.
"There were five of them, dressed in white overalls and wearing ski masks," said an investigator. "They worked very quickly. They stayed for about two minutes."
No one was injured in the heist, except a security guard who was roughed up after he tried to intervene, police said.
The men were armed with machine guns, according to police, and fled in a BMW.
