The robbers — two males and a female — are described by police as Black, between 14 and 20 years old and of differing heights and weights.
One male wore a black and gray hooded sweatshirt, the other male wore a black and red long-sleeve shirt, and the female wore a gray hooded sweatshirt during the robberies, according to images released by police.
