Both suspects are described as Caucasian males in their early 20s with thin builds.
One suspect wore a black toque, black jacket with fur on the hood, grey shirt, light-coloured skinny or tight pants, and beige Timberland style boots.
The other suspect had dark hair and wore a black jacket with a hood, black shoes and grey pants at the time of the robbery.
