Two people have been arrested after a replica firearm was used in a robbery, according to police.
Around 2:10 p.m. on Sunday, police said a man went into a business in the 400 block of Wharncliffe Road near Devonshire Avenue, took items and left the store on foot.
A female employee stopped the suspect and the two people got into a verbal argument that turned physical when the suspect pushed the store employee.
A nearby man tried to diffuse the situation, when police said the suspect pushed him to the ground and pulled out what appeared to be a firearm and threatened the man.

The man is charged with armed robbery, pointing a firearm, uttering threats of death or bodily harm, and resist police officer.
