"One individual went into the gas bar carrying a weapon and demanded the money. He took a large quantity of money and left the scene and the other individuals were close by," he said.
"It turns out that it was a BB gun that was used. It appeared to be a replica of a 9-mm, but it was a BB gun."
The three men will appear in court on Dec. 14 to enter a plea.
