Chief of police Anthony Bruni told Channel 11 the men were targeting someone inside the store on Heckel Road. They approached a man and there was a scuffle -- and that's when the door was either shot out or busted some other way.
Bruni said the man they were targeting was gone by the time officers showed up and nothing was taken from the store.
"We're looking for one person specifically. It was not a robbery at the BP station and nobody was hurt," Bruni said.
Detectives are on scene going over surveillance video and they said it looks to be some kind of law enforcement uniform but not police officer uniforms. They are actively searching for the men.
