It's the same. It's the plural form of person. You just need to add the ''-s'' at the end of the word. And it's okay if you want to say 2 people or 2 persons.
Hope this help you

Pat41's link is very good. One thing to make clear - the use of "persons" in place of "people" is fading. Use "people" and you'll be correct.

Persons refers to more than one person.
She was killed by a person or persons.
