Be aware also that in the future, you can also hit the button to contact the cashier. If they knew you were "calling in backup" (lol), they may have also run off if they were carrying themselves.

My truck and my wife's car have the new-fangled keys that unlock/lock the doors remotely. These keys also have a "Panic" button on them, which sets off the vehicle horn in wailing mode. Hitting this button would provide a few second's distraction to the BGs, giving you time to move and draw. In a best case scenario, it would startle the miscreants enough to discourage them from their plans.
