However, the vendor refused and rather opted shouted for help. The robbers are reported to have fired warning shots in a bid to scare the vendor into giving in to their demands.
Unfortunately, a man who was at the time conducting business with the vendor got caught up in the shootings, with the robbers eloping with his bag.
The other victim is also reported to have received a bullet to his rib and laid unconscious before residents could reach out for help.
