Authorities are investigating an armed robbery Tuesday afternoon at a northeastern Forsyth convenience store.

The incident occurred about 2 p.m. at Oscarville Country Store on Browns Bridge Road near Waldrip Circle.

Forsyth County Sheriff's Lt. Col. Gene Moss said authorities are looking for two men, one of whom has been described as having blond hair.
He did not have a clear description of the other suspect.

Moss said one of the suspects cut an employee on the finger with a knife. The employee was treated at the scene.

"An undisclosed amount of cash was taken and they left on foot," he said.

Moss said the department's dogs were called in to search for the suspects, who reportedly ran toward the back of the building when they left.

Sheriff's Sgt. Bill Franco said investigators are continuing to interview witnesses.
