On Jan. 29 around 2:15 p.m., officers responded to 2200 Pittsfield Blvd. for a report of retail fraud and felonious assault.

Investigation showed a man and woman entered the business and tried to steal items. Employees tried to confront the suspects and tried to prevent the woman from leaving the store when the man took out a handgun and pointed it at an employee, police said.

The suspects left and drove away in a white Kia sedan that was reported stolen out of Farmington Hills, investigators said.
