In a brazen daylight robbery, two miscreants looted cash and a mobile phone from an e-rickshaw driver in Guwahati's Athgaon area on Friday morning.

According to reports, the two men boarded the e-rickshaw near a hotel, posing as passengers, but soon after disembarking, they brandished a pistol to threaten the driver.

The victim recounted the harrowing incident, stating, "Two people boarded from near a hotel, and when they got off, they pointed a pistol at me, looted my money and phone, and demanded my e-rickshaw. When I called for help, they fired a blank shot and escaped."

The robbers not only stole the driver’s cash and mobile phone but also attempted to seize the e-rickshaw.

However, as local residents began to gather at the scene, the culprits fired a shot into the air to create panic before fleeing.
