Two men, one armed with a rifle, robbed a Mexican shop in Hazel Dell on Monday before driving away into the night.

Around 8:30 p.m., two men walked into the El Pueblito Mexican Store at 7817 N.E. Highway 99 and demanded an employee hand over money.

Clark County sheriff’s Sgt. Brent Waddell said the two men brought a rifle, and, after taking the cash, left in a dark-colored sedan. No one was injured, and the two men were still at large, Waddell said.
