NEW YORK (1010 WINS/WCBS 880) -- A 72-year-old employee was pistol-whipped during a robbery at a SoHo electronics store by two men who appear to have posed as FedEx workers, police said Monday.
The NYPD released surveillance video of two suspects—including one in a "FedEx" hoodie—who they're after in Friday's robbery inside a shop at Canal and Mercer streets.
The thieving duo pulled a gun on the employee around 7:30 a.m. and struck him on the back of the head with a firearm, police said.
Surveillance video shows the pair holding a gun to the victim in a back office of the business.
The crooks stole $1,500 from his wallet and tried to gain access to a safe but were unable to before they fled the store.
The victim was treated at the scene by EMS, police said.
Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS.
