A local business owner said a woman pulled a gun on him after she made a mess in his convenience store.
The incident was caught on his surveillance camera.
The video shows two women clearing the shelves and throwing everything on the floor.
The gas station owner, Nawris Ganadl Al Safadi, said one of the women initially came into the store.
"She took one beer and she put it in her bag," Ganadl Al Safadi said.
He said she started to walk out the door.
"I’m asking her kindly to put it back and I told her I won't call the police, just put it back," Ganadl Al Safadi said.
The owner said the woman put back the beer and left, but he said she came back into the store minutes later with a friend.
He said both appeared to be in their 20s.
"She go to this shelf, drop everything on the bottom, and her friend dropped all the cake and everything I have here on the bottom," Ganadl Al Safadi said.
He said he ran outside to get a look at her car and license plate.
"She pulled a gun on me. So I come back and I hit the button, the security button," Ganadl Al Safadi said.
He called police, but the women were gone by the time officers arrived.
He hopes the video will help identify the women so police can track them down.
"I forgive those people, I hope they are going to have the right education to know how to treat the community, the business and the people," Ganadl Al Safadi said.
He said he took over the store about a month ago and this is the first such incident he’s seen.
