Eliseo’s son, 9, was behind the register while all this unfolded.

“You can tell when someone has the intention to do a lot of harm,” Eliseo told news outlet. “I saw that in his eyes.”

He said he knew he would be shot if he didn’t hand over the money. “I gave him everything so [he] wouldn’t hurt anyone,” he told Fox 10 Phoenix.

The search for the suspect continues and a $1,000 reward is being offered for information leading to an arrest, according to a flier released on Friday by Silent Witness, a non-profit Phoenix program that allows for anonymous tips to law enforcement
