An employee of Daleville Furniture Outlet was stabbed during a robbery at the Indiana furniture store, the Muncie Star Press reported Tuesday.

Two men entered the 27-year-old store Monday morning and beat and stabbed an employee before taking money from the cash register. The employee is expected to make a full recovery.

"In all those years, we've never, ever been robbed--ever," Owner Roger Richert said in the report. "There's just no money at a furniture store. Just about everybody's paying with their Visa or MasterCard."

Richert also owns furniture outlet stores in Richmond, Muncie, Anderson and New Castle.
