During the struggle, the suspects' gun fell apart, according to police, so they took the truck driver's gun. They also took the bag of money and fled.

The robbers took off in a 2022 Chevy Malibu, which authorities later recovered in West Philadelphia.

The FBI is still looking for the robbers, who they believe may have ties to Camden.

Agents consider the suspects to be armed and dangerous.
