SAN JOSE, Calif. (KGO) -- Police want the public's help in finding the armed robber who held up a popular San Jose bakery.

Most people come to Nothing Bundt Cakes for the bake goods, but an armed robber cooked up a plan to get some money by holding up the two cashiers inside.

Surveillance video from June 23 shows the suspect walk up to the counter holding his hand on his side while looking at the display.

He then pulls out a handgun and points it at the two young women working the counter. Police say the man demanded cash.

The workers, who feared for their lives, took out the cash from two registers and put it on the counter.

The man took the money and then went behind the counter, looked under the register tray, while continuing to point the gun at the workers. He then left the store.

Police say he was last seen running northbound on Aborn Court. No vehicle was seen.

The suspect is described as a Hispanic man in his 20s, with a skinny build, slender face and wearing a white T-shirt, blue jeans and white running shoes.

Anyone with information is asked to call San Jose police.
