TULSA - Police say an employee at a Tulsa pizza place helped a man rob the store, then took off with part of the loot.

On March 3, Little Caesar's near 4th and Sheridan was held up at gunpoint by a black male, later identified as Bobby Gilton.

Gilton, 19, was arrested the next day for robbery with a firearm and pointing a deadly weapon.

Police say further investigation revealed Gilton had an accomplice -- 22-year-old Brittany Payne, an employee at the restaurant.

During Payne's interview, police say she admitted planning the robbery and taking $1,500 from the money taken during the robbery.  She said Gilton took the rest.
