A day after an ATM bombing in the area, another ATM was bombed inside a Shell Garage store along Bangalore Drive on Tuesday, June 21.
According to a source, heavily armed perpetrators entered the garage, bombed the ATM and fled the scene.
An emergency response vehicle was also shot at by the suspects as they fled the scene.
“Lenasia Mic Holders and Patrollers were in pursuit of the suspects,” said the source.
Pulsate ambulance services attended to the scene and treated the staff.
