At least one of the men was carrying a knife.
They then attempted to gain access to an ATM machine inside the store.
A witness called 911 and police arrived within minutes.
One man was arrested a short distance from the store.
He’s been charged with robbery and kidnapping.
Police are still looking for another man who’s described as black, with a thin build, and wearing a blue hoodie, white shoes, black pants and a backpack.
