Police said the 35-year-old clerk was at the 24/7 Liquor Mart on Streatham Lodge Street Extension at around 2 pm when three men, armed with a gun, entered the store and announced a robbery.
The bandits stole $10,000 cash and a quantity of alcohol and cigarettes valued at $66,000.
The bandits packed the goods in feed bags and ordered the clerk to go into the store room while they left.
The men then got into a waiting car and drove off.
