In Roseville, California authorities are searching for a machete-wielding suspect who threatened to attack a store clerk at the neighborhood stop and shop.

Surveillance footage shows the man getting aggressive, then pulling a machete out of his pants.

The suspect then begins attacking the plexiglass shield which prevented the employee from serious injury.

Officers say he stole from the store and broke into a car in the parking lot just moments after this violent attack.

The suspect is known and wanted for questioning about this crime and others.
