He shot two taxi businessmen and an exchange of bullets occurred between him and the men who were at the office which led to the shooting of an innocent bystander who was out to get water from a nearby premises.

One of the dead was a suspected shooter who is accused of breaking into the local taxi organization’s offices and killing two individuals inside. Four people were shot: the hitman who opened fire, a bystander who  unfortunately caught fire when the hitman and the employees at the Uncedo premises exchanged bullets and the two taxi businessmen shot by the hitman.
