MIAMI (CBSMiami) -- Miami Dade Police are looking for two men they say robbed a check cashing store at gunpoint.
On Monday, police released surveillance video of the February 22nd incident asking for the public's help in identifying the two men.
Investigators said they walked into a store located at 9081 SW 40th Street. Jamie Pendegrass, 26, and Sandra Serrano, 31, were inside at around 2 p.m.
One of the armed men jumped the counter and demanded that Pendegrass open the safe as he allegedly "treated her with an electronic control device," police said.
The second man went up to Serrano - pointing a gun at her- and demanded money from the register.
The two men got away with $1,900 in cash. Police said they got away in a gold Toyota Avalon.
Anyone with information is asked to call Miami-Dade Crime Stoppers at (305) 471- TIPS.
