Released by police, the second video above show the bandit -- his face covered by a mask and a hoodie --going into the Stop & Go Deli & Grocery on Lafayette Place around 8 p.m. Tuesday and pointing a gun at two clerks behind the counter.

The first video shows him diving across the counter, grabbing cash from the register and fending off the courageous clerk.

Police said he then ran west on Rosemont Place and got into a dark-colored vehicle that eventually travelled towards the Teaneck border.

Detectives were trying to find additional video from the area. They asked any merchants or others who may have recordings or seen something of interest to contact CrimeStoppers.
