Two men have been arrested and charged with the armed robbery of an Eau Claire grocery store.

The Eau Claire County Sheriff's Department arrested Juan Carlos Benitez-Antonio, 27, and Brandon Goforth, 29, both of Eau Claire, on Saturday.

In a criminal complaint, the two are charged with robbing the Supermercado Sandoval Mexican Grocery Store on London Road Thursday night. Deputies allege Benitez-Antonio went into the store with a gun and ordered the employee to open the register.

The complaint says he left with a little more than $1,000. Investigators say Goforth drove the getaway car. Several tips led to the arrests and the complaint says both confessed to the crime.
