Authorities are searching for three suspects who robbed a mother and threatened to shoot her son at a store in Palmdale, California.

The Jan. 4  robbery occurred inside a Target store at 47th Street East, Palmdale, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department.

Authorities said the three men, all wearing gray or dark-colored hoodies, entered the store and stole the woman’s purse before assaulting her and threatening to shoot her son.

Then the three men sprinted out of the store, entered a gray Dodge Dart sedan, and drove away.

Surveillance video from Target shows the men running from the store as the woman chases them.

One man shoves the woman to the ground while witnesses are also seen running after the men.

Images of the suspects were released in hopes the public may recognize them.

Authorities ask anyone with information on the incident to call Detective Felix at 661-272-2460.
