Albany -- Two armed men rob the Dollar General Store on North Slappey Boulevard as employees were closing Tuesday night. As the manager was letting the last customer out the door a little after 8 o-clock, two men with guns forced their way in.

The manager was taken to the office, where she gave the armed robbers the store's money. They then ran. A store spokesperson said the employees are still "shook up" after the robbery, but glad no one was hurt.
