Guam – The hunt is on for a gunman all clad in back who held several store employees at gunpoint outside La Familia Mart in Dededo.
GPD spokesman Sgt. Paul Tapao said the armed robbery occurred at around 11:20 p.m., Saturday. This is the second hit on La Familia Mart in recent months. This time, the incident occurred as store employees were closing up for the night.
The robbery was caught on camera. In the video, the store’s employees are getting ready to leave when a masked person brandishing a handgun approaches them. He then appears to order the employees to drop their bags and to lie face down on the ground.
