According to a statement released by the Bellevue Police Department, the incident took place just before 3:00 am when three suspects entered the store. One of the suspects reportedly fired a warning shot into the air, causing fear among the customers and employees present in the store.

7-Eleven opened at 11 Bellevue Way Southeast in 2015. It had previously been located on Main Street and closed back in May 2014.
