The four people entered a deli on Marcus Garvey Boulevard in Bedford-Stuyvesant dressed in dark clothing with NYPD logos.

The group zip-tied a 48-year-old customer, a 68-year-old employee, and a 40-year-old employee and forced them to the ground at gunpoint.

The robbers took off with a bag with items from the location and fled in a dark colored van.

No one was injured.
