PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- A vicious robbery of an elderly man inside of a CVS was caught on surveillance video. Police hope the video will lead them to the attackers.

An 85-year-old man was using the MoneyGram machine at the CVS store on Bustleton Avenue last month. That's when he was approached by two offenders, asking if he needed help.

When the woman took money from the victim's pocket, another woman grabbed his money and a male suspect can be seen in the video knocking the victim to the ground.

The suspects fled across Bustleton Avenue towards the Shell gas station.

If you recognize either one of the suspects, call police.
