The footage suggests that this was not a regular armed robbery, but possibly a targeted assassination attempt.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"fjfv5\" data-offset-key=\"ajnbt-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"ajnbt-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"ajnbt-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"fjfv5\" data-offset-key=\"7q2qd-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"7q2qd-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"7q2qd-0-0\">According to initial information from the <a href=\"https:\/\/keynews.sr\/en\/man-shot-dead-in-suspected-armed-robbery-in-geyersvlijt\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">police<\/a>, this was believed to have been an armed robbery. However, the video footage casts a different light on the incident. The footage shows the victim being shot at repeatedly. Based on the footage, it appears that more than 20 shots were fired.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"fjfv5\" data-offset-key=\"1de6t-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"1de6t-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"1de6t-0-0\">\u00a0<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"fjfv5\" data-offset-key=\"8isu8-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"8isu8-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"8isu8-0-0\">The incident occurred at approximately 6.46 p.m. near building number 3 on Kawfutuboistraat.
