PETALING JAYA: A man walked out of a convenience store after buying a pack of cigarettes and was shot several times in the stomach.

In the 4.50pm incident on Monday (Oct 15), the 35-year-old man was seen leaving the store of a condominium, along Jalan Persiaran Tropicana when the shooting occurred. 

Petaling Jaya OCPD Asst Comm Mohd Zani Che Din said the gunman was described as fair skinned, around five feet seven inches tall, and dressed in white and black.

Police are investigating the motive for the shooting while recording statements from witnesses and studying CCTV footage in the area.

Anyone with information is urged to contact the police.
