Don't Leave Your Children Unattended

Suddenly, the guy in the olive-green hoodie turns and walks off. As he does this, the other guy in the red hoodie grabs the cash register and yanks it right off of the counter. He then makes a break for it, but a kid is directly behind him. Thankfully, the camera cuts so we don't see the incident. The tweet says the child suffered minor injuries.
