Four Appleton, Wisconsin residents are facing prison time after attempting an armed robbery at a local Burger King.

Employees of the Burger King said that three men approached them on their smoke breaks and forced them to give up anything in their pockets and get on the ground. The men, while armed with guns, then entered the Burger King and harrassed the fast-food restaurant's employees. No one was severely injured, and the suspects were later apprehended by police.

Two suspects are awaiting trial, and one has been sentenced to five years in prison. A woman who acted as the getaway driver for the three men was also apprehended and was sentenced to two years in jail.
