Armed Robbers Target PCS Store
Surveillance Cameras Caught Bandits on Tape

Philadelphia - Two armed robbers held up a PCS store 4300 block of North Broad Street just before 4:30pm on Friday.

Surveillance video shows one of the suspects hurdled the counter during the robbery.

The store manager says the robber ordered two store employees to open the backroom safe and the cash registers.

The video shows store manager, Sean Patton, attempting to reach for the alarm button, but thinking twice as the robber raided the first drawer with gun in hand.

"I was frozen," Patton said. "I didn't know what to do."

This is the second holdup at the store in the past 6 months.

The cellular store is offering a $1,000 reward for anyone with in
formation that can help lead to an arrest. Individuals are encouraged to contact the Philadelphia Police Department's 35th precinct.
