Cell phones and cash were stolen in an armed robbery from a Metro PCS store in the Serra Mesa neighborhood of San Diego Tuesday, the San Diego Police Department (SDPD) confirmed.
The robbery occurred around 3:57 p.m. on the 2600 block of Mission Village Drive.
There were two suspects involved in the robbery--one with a beard, wearing a gray hoodie, shorts and one wearing a gray shirt and pants.
One of the suspects was carrying a handgun, police said.
Kathleen Cram, a witness, told NBC 7 the suspects were both wearing gray hoodies, which she found strange since the weather was warm.
"When they came out, they walked slower, looked around, smiled and went through the little alley," Cram said.
"[It's] in our neighborhood, I don't like it," she said.
