Officers then spoke with the caller who stated the suspect had entered the restaurant at 107 State Street, approached the glass partition in which the victim was standing behind, and displayed a black firearm. An additional victim approached officers and stated that the suspect had entered 103 State Street, removed a firearm from his waistband, placing the victim as well as customers in significant fear.
