Richmond County authorities are looking for three armed robbers who held up the JR’s Food Mart Wednesday night on Old Savannah Road in Augusta.
The 40-year-old clerk said she was checking out a customer when three males entered the store and robbed it at gunpoint. One of the suspects jumped behind the counter and pointed a gun at her.
“I won’t shoot you if you give up the money,” he said.
The suspects took the two drawers out of the cash registers and ran out of the store. One of the suspects also took $20 from her, a sheriff’s report says.
Late Thursday, two suspects were identified as Travonne Sloans and Deanthony Hayes. A third suspect was not named by authorities, but they were pictured in a wanted poster.
