MORAINE, Ohio (WDTN) - Police in Moraine are looking for three people who robbed the Walmart store at gunpoint Monday night.

Officers said the men forced their way into the store minutes after closing time. One pulled a gun and led the store manager and three other workers to the customer service counter where they took cash.

Afterwards they left on foot and police believe they got into a car that had been parked at Murray's Place across the street.

"We're asking for help from the public to help solve it and help identify these individuals, said Sgt. Keith Leach. "The clothing's pretty distinctive as you see. We hope we can ID them pretty quick."

This Walmart is no stranger to crime. Last year a woman was shot in the parking lot and a clerk was robbed. Since then, police said Walmart has upgraded its security system. They hope it pays off in this case.

If you have any information call Crime Stoppers at 222-STOP.
