A bystander was shot on Wednesday evening when armed bandits invaded the Popeyes restaurant on Vlissengen Road and held up employees before escaping with over $200,000.
In the latest in a series of attacks on the restaurant, Ian Jupiter, 27, of Campbellville Housing Scheme, sustained a bullet wound to his right leg after the bandits began firing in the air during their escape.
According to a supervisor at Popeyes, Jupiter was outside of the building and he was grazed by a bullet the men fired.
The police, in a press release, said that at about 8.35pm on Wednesday two men armed with guns held up female cashiers at the restaurant and took away a total of $212, 000.
Security guards who were on duty at the time reportedly ran for cover after observing the attack.
The attack was captured by surveillance cameras installed on the premises.
