The other man also appears to be Caucasian and is wearing a red and black mottled hooded sweatshirt, a medical style facemask, gray sweatpants with three black stripes down each leg, and a baseball hat with unclear coloring.

Shortly after placing items on the counter, one of the men removes an apparent firearm from his waistband and points it at the cashier and steps behind the sales counter. The other man then steps behind the counter and while his accomplice uses a firearm to strike the cashier in the head.
