WASHINGTON – Police in the nation’s capital are seeking the public’s assistance in locating two men accused of a brazen armed robbery at Ramdass Pharmacy.
Surveillance footage captured the suspects entering the pharmacy in the 400 block of Ingraham Street Northeast last Friday afternoon.
The first suspect, seen wearing sunglasses, a mask, a dark green sweatshirt, and black pants, entered the pharmacy ahead of his alleged accomplice.
Moments later, the second suspect, dressed entirely in black and also wearing a mask, followed him into the store.
According to authorities, the situation escalated when the first suspect brandished a firearm, vaulted over the counter, and proceeded to rob three individuals inside the pharmacy. After the robbery, both suspects calmly walked down an aisle and exited through the front door.
The owner of Ramdass Pharmacy declined to speak on camera, visibly shaken after reviewing the surveillance footage.
Police have announced a reward of up to $10,000 for any information leading to the arrest and conviction of the suspects involved in this incident.
Anyone with information is urged to contact D.C. Metropolitan Police immediately.

VIRGINIA – World Cup excitement continued to grow across the Washington region Tuesday as Croatia’s national soccer team arrived at Dulles International Airport ahead of the tournament.
The team’s plane touched down shortly before 4:30 p.m. under clear skies at a private area of the airport. While fans were not able to greet the players upon arrival, media crews watched as team members eventually boarded buses and departed the airport, with some players waving as they passed by.
The buses carrying the team were escorted from the airport by Alexandria police as Croatia headed to its World Cup home base in Alexandria.
Local perspective:
The team’s arrival comes just days after Alexandria celebrated Croatia with a community festival called “Flavors & Sounds of Croatia.” The family-friendly event featured music, games and cultural activities while highlighting the growing partnership between the city and Croatia.
Alexandria was selected by the Croatian national team as its base camp for the tournament. The team is expected to stay at a local hotel and train at a high school in the city during its time in the region.
Local businesses are also joining the celebration.
Shops throughout Old Town Alexandria are participating in “Shop the Checkers,” a promotion featuring Croatian-themed displays, discounts, giveaways and flags displayed outside participating stores, according to city officials.
What you can do:
World Cup festivities are planned throughout the D.C. area in the coming weeks.
District officials announced public watch parties will begin Friday at Franklin Park, where fans can gather to watch matches, including the United States’ game against Paraguay.
Additional events are scheduled for June 19 to 21 at Tingey Plaza in Navy Yard
