Chicago Police were searching for two robbers who allegedly got away with as much as $20,000 from a fashion show audition at the Hilton Chicago Hotel on South Michigan Avenue.
Police said no one was hurt in the holdup late Sunday night on the hotel's third floor, although the robbers reportedly bound some of their victims with duct tape.
Officers said the male robbers went to the ballroom where the audition was taking place, and demanded the money the participants had paid to audition.
Officers said the person in charge of the fashion show, told them the robbers got away with some $20,000 in cash, but police could not verify that amount early Monday morning.
