Video shows the suspects walking into the store and ordering everyone onto the ground.

One suspect then points a gun at numerous employees, asking where the narcotics are, then forcing a worker to fill a duffel bag with drugs.

The suspects then flee with the narcotics and an unknown amount of cash, running north on H Street and jumping into a silver Dodge Charger. Police say they were last seen heading west on Bristol Street.



Investigators say they were able to lift some DNA evidence from the scene.
