According to a witness who spoke on condition of anonymity, immediately the victim stepped out, one of the assailants held him by his waist on the church premises.
In the ensuing confusion, he said Success was wrestled to the ground while another assailant emerged and shot him dead.
“The gunmen thereafter collected his (success) mobile phone before fleeing the scene.
