VIDEO: Armed robbery at Bay Area Target caught on camera
Police say masked men armed with a handgun and a rifle robbed a Target store in Emeryville early Saturday morning, and part of it was caught on camera.

EMERYVILLE, Calif. -- Police have released a video of a takeover robbery over the weekend at a Target store in Emeryville and are asking for the public's help to identify the suspects.

Three masked men armed with a handgun and a rifle entered the store at 1555 40th St. as it was closing late Friday night, police said.

At 12:07 a.m. Saturday, police responded but the suspects had already driven away in a four-door silver sedan, according to police.

"We're obviously looking for the public's help," Capt. Oliver Collins said. "The suspects are all masked up."

Before the suspects made off with an undisclosed amount of money, they told everyone, including customers, to get on the floor while they took the money from a cash drawer.

In the video, one suspect can be seen pointing a rifle at an employee.
