Two masked men entered the store in the 600 block of North Homewood Avenue around 1 p.m.
The suspects shot a clerk twice in the stomach, according to Diane Richard, a spokeswoman for the Pittsburgh police. The victim was taken to UPMC Presbyterian in critical condition.
The suspects were seen in a silver car. It was unclear if they made off with any money.
