A criminal “drama” has occurred in Salavat, Russia.

A group of masked men came to an auto service, fired at seven Armenians, and one of them died as a result.

It was found out that the casualty was a local businessman, along with his friends.

All of them were hospitalized in serious condition.

The victims are A. Sargsyan, A. Voskanyan, T. Voskanyan, S. Grigoryan, M. Malomyan, A. Avetyan, and A. Akulyan.

But according to the latest data, A. Sargsyan, to whom the aforesaid auto service belonged, underwent surgery at the Salavat hospital, but he died from the gunshot wound to his head.

“All the circumstances of the incident are being ascertained,” informed the LifeNews source from the local law enforcement.

The said Russian news website and TV found out, however, that this shooting was preceded by a traffic dispute that had taken place several hours before the incident in the auto service.
