Cops are searching for two gun-wielding goons who looted a Kings Highway cell phone store on Sept. 27.

The armed robbers entered the T-Mobile store near Utica Avenue at 1:30 pm and order frightened customers to lay on the floor while they ransacked the store’s shelves — grabbing $8,000 worth of cash and stolen goods, according to authorities.
