was there around 1am on my way to a nearby complex, saw like 6-7 cruisers with their sirens on.
assumed either someone got shot or robbed due to so many cruisers on scene.

Stuff like this happens a lot more then you'd think. My buddies graphics shop in Richmond was robbed at gunpoint years ago, one friend pistol whipped, pregnant women thrown to the ground and tied up and it never made the news at all.

Was just the restaurant robbed, or were the customers robbed as well?

If no one got shot, it may not make it into the news.
This is probably more common than you'd think.
Only difference is no one posts the other ones on RS.
99% of us wouldn't even know anything happened including the ones
that just came back from the restaurant right after the incident if it wasn't for
OP's post. lol

A couple years ago this was fairly common place at a lot of the late night pho, wonton & noodle houses. I remember after a night at the club eating at the Wonton House on Cambie and the restaurant across the street got robbed while we where eating at Wonton House.
I suspect this is still fairly common place, remember, not everything gets reported on the news.

My friend was at a Chevron on the weekend and it got robbed at gunpoint. Everyone was ordered on the floor, had to give up their cash. Scary stuff. You don't always hear about it, but it's happening everyday all over Metro Vancouver.

My friend was there. So yes they did get robbed, they robbed the customers too.
She lost a diamond ring, her leather jacket, keys + her purse/wallet. Apparently wearing masks and one guy had a shotgun. Supposedly they fired a couple shots in the air also.
I was on my way to pick her up from No. 9. Ended up sitting there for hours before cops would let her out.
Alot of the old chinese people were REALLY shaken up. Kind of sad actually.

Ouch, that's brutal.
Taking customers' keys too? Shit now you have to change ALL of your locks.

heard about this from my friend last night, wasn't sure of it's validity since it was all hear-say, but i guess now i know
from what i heard, customers were also robbed at gunpoint (which has now been confirmed)
then again it's no surprise, 9/10 places that are open 24 hours will have this happen
