Authorities are hoping to get surveillance video to help them as they investigate an armed robbery over the weekend at a Pittsburgh-area restaurant.

According to police, a knife-wielding man robbed the Subway sandwich shop on McNeilly Road in Baldwin Sunday just after 1 p.m.

The clerk, Justin Price, told Channel 11's Alan Jennings that a man walked in and told him to open the register.

According to Price, the robber put his hand on his throat and held a curved knife out in front of him.

"He just came around the counter real quick with (the knife) up in the air trying to show it off,” said Price.

Baldwin Police told Channel 11 News that the robber also had a handgun visible in his pocket.

Price said he wasn’t hurt and kept his cool while telling to robber to have a nice day.
