Police are asking for the public's help in identifying two armed robbery suspects who hit a downtown mini-mart in downtown Renton Sept. 23.

The suspects appear to be the same sought in four other robberies in the Seattle area, according to a Renton press release.

The video shows two men force a clerk to place money from the register into a plastic bag.

One suspect wore a black and white "fright" mask and the other wore a ski mask and carried a large knife in his right hand.

Police are asking those who've heard about the crime to contact Detective Keyes at 425-430-7500.
