At about 8:30 the evening of January 27th, surveillance cameras captured the woman entering the Family Dollar at 1431 Wayne Avenue in Dayton.

She approached the cashier with a toothbrush she appeared to be buying, but when the clerk opened the cash register, she reached into her coat pocket as if she had a gun and demanded all the money from the register.
