The owner and witness told police that shortly before the crime occurred, a third man was in the store. He made a modest purchase and was seen talking on his cell phone several times. The moment he left, the two robbers entered before the door could close--thus circumventing the door's buzz-in lock. The customer is described as a black man, light complexion, wearing a dark blue cap and a puffy jacket over a hoody.
