The suspect seen on video leaving in the car is a white male, approximately 6-feet tall with a medium build. He has a tattoo in the area of his left eye and may walk with a limp.

A second male, who is seen on video arriving at the business the same time as the suspect, is also being sought by investigators as a person of interest.
