In September 2015, McCallister entered a Dollar General store on Atlantic Boulevard, approached the clerk at the front counter and told her to open the cash register.

When another employee approached, McCallister pulled out a gun, pointed it at the employees and again demanded them to open the register. The victims complied and McCallister took the money and fled the scene.
