The men—two armed with handguns and another wielding a knife—entered the bodega on Eldridge Street on the Lower East Side around 5 p.m. Thursday, according to police.


The robbers ordered 11 people inside the bodega to get on the floor and hand over their cash and jewelry, police said.

The stolen items were reportedly valued at around $5,000.

The suspects took off down Eldridge Street on foot, police said.

The NYPD released images of the suspects on Saturday.
