KANSAS CITY, Mo. - A man robbed a Kansas City restaurant Tuesday night armed with a samurai sword, police said.

The man was described as a light-skinned black male standing between 5 foot 4 and 5 foot 5, weighing 120 to 130 pounds.

The suspect drove off in an older-model brown two-toned Chevy pickup truck, possibly from the 1980s.
