However, before the suspects could lay their hands on the ornaments, the owner of the shop jumped over the table and rushed out of the shop shouting for help.

As their plan failed, the offenders ran out of the shop and escaped on a motorcycle. A worker of the shop threw a chair at the offender while they were escaping but the duo managed to flee away.

The shop keeper, however, reportedly told the police that the robbers had managed to take away some gold ornaments. The police are verifying the footage recorded by the closed-circuit cameras installed on the road.
