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.
