It happened Monday morning just after 8:30 a.m. at the store on the 7200 block of Crittenden Street.



As an employee was opening the store, police said one of the suspects came in and forced the employee to his knees.



Armed with a gun, the suspect then took the employee to an office where he took $42 out of a safe.



Investigators said a second suspect was acting as a lookout outside.



The employee was not hurt.
