On Feb. 25 at approximately 7:45 p.m., officers were called to the AT&T Store located at 5227-C Monticello Avenue to a robbery. The female clerk reported that two unknown men came into the store, displayed a silver handgun and pushed her forcefully to the rear of the business demanding that she open multiple safes. She opened one of the safes and provided them the phones inside. When they demanded that she open the other safes, she told them that she did not have a key and was unable to open them. They pushed her back onto the sales floor and fled through the rear of the store.
The two suspects are described as black males wearing black zip up hoodies, ski masks and gloves.
The manager is conducting inventory in order to determine which merchandise was stolen.
