“We are investigating that incident, we will be releasing further information in due course,” said Comm Nyathi.
The robbers, believed to be three, struck before 10am yesterday, fired a single shot that bounced off a horizontal pillar inside the shop before walking away with cash.

A worker at the shop told Zimpapers that a security guard who was on duty became a victim after the robbers searched him and took away his wallet that had his particulars and US$70.
