At least four suspects can been seen filling bags worth of merchandise before hopping on motorcycles and fleeing the scene.
One of the riders appears to have a rifle slung across his back.
All of the suspects were wearing full riding gear and helmets.
"The banditry repression brigade is on the spot," police announced shortly after the robbery.
