Atlanta police are asking the public for help in identifying suspects in an aggravated assault at a southwest Atlanta gas station in December.

Just before 7 p.m. on Dec. 5, police were called to a Chevron at 3040 Headland Drive after employees reported being assaulted, according to a news release. After an employee told one of the suspects not to urinate in the back of the building, the man assaulted and pointed a gun at the employee, the news release states. The second suspect then assaulted another employee who tried to intervene.

The suspects stole a firearm from one of the employees and fled the scene in what appeared to be a gray Buick, according to the release.

The second suspect is not clearly seen in the photographs but was wearing a black hoodie, white T-shirt, black jeans, lime green hat, black and lime green Jordan shoes that matched his hat and little braids in his hair.
