Arrest warrants have been issued for 31-year-old Darius John Morgan Brertton. He is wanted for robbery and robbery with a firearm.
A second man, who police say threatened the employee with bear spray, has not yet been identified.
Police allege both men stole money and merchandise from the store on 89 Street on Jan. 5 at roughly 11:45 p.m.
