WATCH: Three Men Wanted For 7-Eleven Armed Robbery In Silver Spring

SILVER SPRING, MD — The Montgomery County Police Department is asking the public to help identify three men involved in an armed robbery of a 7-Eleven convenience store in Silver Spring.

At about 3:15 a.m. Feb. 11, a male employee was in the 7-Eleven office when the three suspects entered the store, police told Patch.

The employee exited the office upon hearing the suspects enter, and saw one suspect was behind the counter and had removed the drawers from two cash registers, police said.

Another suspect armed with a handgun confronted the employee and instructed him to return to the office. The employee complied with the suspect's order, and all three suspects fled from the store, police said.

The suspects can be seen on store surveillance video entering a dark colored four-door sedan that was parked in front of the store. The vehicle left the parking lot of the 7-Eleven and was last seen traveling on 16th Street toward Georgia Avenue.
