The Grants Pass Department of Public Safety said on January 25, 20-year-old Ethan Kyle Riley and 18-year-old Justin Glenn walked into a 76 Gas Station convenience store on 6th Street.

According to police, the pair took beer from a cooler and left the business without paying. When they were confronted by someone working at the store, Riley allegedly pointed a gun at the employee. Both Riley and Glenn then ran away.
