Thinking quickly, she hit the silent alarm activation as he was coming through the door.

"He shouted at me to 'Get down on the ground'," she said.

A second man, also with his face covered, then came into the store and pulled a plastic shopping bag out of his pocket.

The armed duo stole less than $250 and were last seen headed west in the direction of several apartment buildings on Cook Rd at around 7 p.m.

RCMP had the area cordoned off in all directions and a K-9 Unit was also brought in.
