BRONX - Workers at a Pelham Bay 7-Eleven were held hostage and robbed by three gunmen for a carton of cigarettes. Police released surveillance video of the suspects in the early morning armed robbery.
At around 3:30 am on March 20, three men dressed in black and masks burst into the 7-Eleven at 1590 Hutchinson River Parkway. The masked men pointed guns at the employees and forced two of the three workers into a bathroom inside the store.
The gunmen then forced a third worker to the front of the store to go behind the counter and open the cash registers. The robbers removed $700 in cash and over $1,000 worth of cigarettes.
The gunmen then ran out of the store without incident. It is unclear if they escaped in a nearby car or on foot.
Once robbers were gone the clerk freed his fellow coworkers and called police.
