Police are searching for two suspects they say are connected to a Manhattan Beach robbery.
Police say the pair posed as utility workers and knocked on the door of a home near Oriental Boulevard and Ocean Avenue Thursday. 
When the 88-year-old victim answered the door, the two men said they were there to check a utility issue and the elderly woman allowed them in.
That's when police say they robbed the victim before speeding off in a pickup truck with a third suspect behind the wheel.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
