Chilling video shows a masked man pointing what police describe as a ‘submachine gun’ at a West Philadelphia store clerk during a broad daylight robbery.
Investigators say three men wearing masks and dark clothes entered the 42nd Market on the 900 block of 42nd Street around 11:30 a.m. Tuesday.
One of the suspects approaches the counter and, after several seconds, pulls out a machine gun from the front of his pants. The two other suspects - one of whom may have been armed with a handgun - stand near the exit as the clerk hands over "several hundred dollars."
