Authorities are continuing to search for two suspects who were caught on surveillance camera robbing a Dripping Springs area jewelry store in broad daylight Saturday.
According to a Hays County press release, authorities received a call reporting an aggravated robbery that had taken place at Vik’s Jewelers, located in the 500 block of east Highway 290, at approximately 11:31 a.m.
Two black males entered the store and brandished handguns and ordered two employees to raise their hands, according to the release.
