Police in Mombasa are searching for three gangsters linked to robberies and burglaries in Tudor, Majengo subcounty.
The three on Tuesday shot and injured a shopkeeper and stole Sh100,000 near a chief's office.
The gang arrived on a motorbike at 10pm. The shopkeeper, identified only as Rasta, was shot in the chest and is admitted to Coast General Hospital.
In another incident, the gangsters raided Mass petrol station, a few metres from Makupa police station. They shot at attendants in a robbery attempt that was frustrated by the swift response from the police.
