Investigators with the LaGrange Police Department are searching for two suspects who allegedly robbed a man at gunpoint about 1:30 a.m. Friday while he was sitting on his porch in the 400 block of Milam Street.

The victim was sitting in a chair in his backyard when two males with white T-shirts over their faces approached him, said investigators. Both robbers each pulled out a handgun and demanded the victim give them his wallet.
