Police said the man walked into the store and, at first, acted like a customer while holding a gun in his right hand. As he stood in line and approached the counter, he pulled out the handgun from the middle of his pants and demanded money from the register. The video also shows him attempting to use his shirt as a mask.

The employee reportedly handed over the money from the drawer and the suspect fled the scene.

Crime Stoppers is offering to pay up to $5,000 for information that will lead to an arrest.
