Philadelphia-based retailer Ubiq was recently a victim to an armed robbery last week over sneakers.

According to Philly.com, a hooded gunman made his way to the register at the popular boutique with three sneakers, around 1:18 p.m. last Wednesday. The suspect, identified as a black male in his 20s, made demands to get the sneakers for free along with cash from the register, while brandishing a gun from the right side of his hoodie's pocket.

The entire incident was recorded on the store's surveillance camera, which you can view above.

The suspect fled the scene with the three sneakers and an undisclosed amount of cash. He was last seen running east on Walnut Street with a dark grey hoodie, jeans, and black sneakers with orange shoe laces.

Fortunately, no one in the store was harmed.

If you have any information, you can contact Philadelphia Police at 215-686-8477 (TIPS) or 215-686-3093.
