Security Guard Shot Inside South Laurel Grocery Store

Prince George's County police are looking for two suspects after a security guard was shot inside a South Laurel grocery store Thursday night.

The incident occurred around 9 p.m. at the Bottom Dollar Foods in the 12600 block of Laurel-Bowie Road.

Two masked men entered the store, confronted the security officer, and took his weapon, police told FOX5, although it is not clear whether the guard's gun was used in the attack. The suspects reportedly fled in a light blue SUV.

Officials said the victim was transported to a hospital in serious condition but that he is expected to survive. 

Early reports indicated the shooting was in Bowie, but the store is located just over the city line in South Laurel.
