Ah..I know this store well. I shop there occasionally and back when I worked for Giant, which is just up the street I worried about the same thing happening to me. I was a pharmacy clerk and I worked usually at night with a cash pan in the back of the store. It was jammed full of cash and late at night I worried. I though don't think this was a typical holdup. I think the cashier knew these men. I hope he'll be okay and catch these thugs. You're not safe ANYWHERE THESE DAYS!
