Authorities are asking for the public's help in finding gang members accused of robbing a drive-thru convenience store.

It all happened at the M&M Drive Thru off South Cesar Chavez Road late Tuesday night.

San Juan police told Action 4 News that teens entered the store with a machete and a pistol.

The teens walked away with about $200 dollars in stolen cash.

Investigators believe that the teens are members of South Side Bandidos gang and may be responsible for robbing another drive-thru in neighboring Alamo.

Anyone with information is asked to call San Juan Crime Stoppers at (956) 283-TIPS.
