Amritsar : A local resident, Rajinder Kumar (47), was allegedly shot dead by unidentified persons in Washington DC during a robbery incident. Rajinder had been living there for three years. A pall of gloom descended on his house in the Khandwala area at Chheharta.
Deepak Sharma, a relative of the deceased, said the incident took place at around 11.30 am IST. "Rajinder was sitting on the cash counter of Exxon Gas Station. The CCTV camera footage revealed that an African-American man armed with a handgun entered the store and confronted Rajinder. He shot him dead and took away cash. The accused was wearing a dark hooded sweatshirt and shorts. The incident came to light when a customer reached the store and found Rajinder in a pool of blood."
The deceased is survived by his wife Rajni Sharma and two children, Saurav (20) and Sonali (12). Rajni works in a clinical laboratory.
