At approximately 12:20 a.m., three males entered the Kit Kat Pizza at 2314 Gottingen Street in Halifax. All three males were wearing ski masks and armed with hand guns. One suspect demanded the cash from the register. When the store owner did not comply, one of the suspects struck the store owner with the butt of the gun.
