.Although bold and brazen, three armed robbery suspects are no richer after they pulled a gun at a Dollar General store in Mount Dora just after 8 p.m. yesterday.  

The trio entered the store, located at  21850 U.S. Highway 441 just south of Robie Avenue, wearing jeans, black hoodies, gloves  and ski masks and then ordered an employee to open the cash register at gunpoint. Employees were unsuccessful in opening the register and the suspects left without cash or merchandise.
