A jewellery shop was looted at gunpoint by three armed men who entered the Darshan Jewellers on Golibar Road in Ghatkopar West at around 10.30 am on Wednesday. According to the Ghatkopar police, the owner, Darshan Metkari, who was inside the shop, was also ambushed by the robbers, during which he suffered an injury to his neck and was taken to the hospital for treatment.

“We didn’t even realise what was happening; my staff heard the commotion as Darshan screamed for help, and by the time they went out, the robbers were running away, and one of them fired his gun in the air,” said the owner of one of the adjacent shops, requesting anonymity.  The eyewitnesses to the incident said that two of the robbers fled on a two-wheeler, while the third ran away while firing bullets in the air.
