A surveillance video captured images of the suspects clad in dark clothing. One suspect was wearing a mask, dark Nike hoodie and pants. The other suspect was wearing a dark sweater or jacket and pants and carrying money in his hand.

Both suspects fled in a silver four-door Cadillac in an unknown direction.
