Video: An Armenian citizen killed a compatriot in a parking lot in Russia. Details

Moscow region police are searching for a 29-year-old Armenian citizen who shot and killed a 44-year-old compatriot in a parking lot in the city of Noginsk. The suspect fired shots at the man and fled in an unknown direction.

According to mk.ru, the incident occurred on the evening of January 7 near a shopping center on Trudovaya Street in Noginsk. Thanks to surveillance camera footage, investigators were able to reconstruct the timeline of events. The 44-year-old, named Armen (all names have been changed), and his companion had arrived at a restaurant where a conflict erupted with an elderly visitor, accompanied by his 29-year-old son, Georg.

It is reported that soon after, Armen and his companion exited the restaurant and got into their vehicle, preparing to go home. However, a group of aggressive men blocked their way. They attempted to pull Armen from the car, and when that failed, Georg fired five shots at the man. Four bullets struck Armen in the left leg, and one hit the lower part of his back.

The attackers retreated as quickly as they had appeared. The shooter entered a Porsche vehicle and drove off in an unknown direction. The injured man managed to reach the hospital on his own, accompanied by his companion, who witnessed the attack. However, she was unable to explain to the doctors what had happened. Just under an hour later, Armen died.

It is also reported that the shooter's relatives have not clarified the reason for the conflict, nor have they disclosed where the murderer is currently hiding. The suspect in the murder is a businessman, with a restaurant registered in his name in Noginsk.

According to Olga Vradiy, senior assistant to the head of the main investigative department of the Moscow region’s Investigative Committee, a criminal case has been initiated regarding the murder.
