Suspect Reveals Face To Camera Before Robbery

Posted: 11:02 am EST November 10, 2008Updated: 11:05 am EST November 10, 2008

One man entered the Grocery Box convenience store on Texas Avenue (see map) near Oakridge Road with his gun pointed at a clerk and a customer. His partner in crime followed behind. Both of the suspects had masks on, but moments earlier a surveillance camera outside the store captured a shot of the thief's profile, before he slipped his ski cap on.

"He hit the gun on his head and took all the money. He hit my brother," said Hitesh Patel the Victim's Brother.

Patel said his brother was shaken up, but otherwise doing fine after his encounter with the robbers. Eyewitnesses said the pair got away in a silver Chevy Monte Carlo.
