Police are attempting to identify the remaining two suspects and a suspect vehicle in connection with an armed robbery at a southeast business in January 2017.
According to investigators, three masked men armed with firearms and a machete stormed Hempisphere, in the 5300 block of 17 Avenue S.E., in the evening hours of Friday, January 20, 2017.
One man grabbed the store manager and held a gun to her head while the other suspects demanded another employee give them keys to the business' safe.
