According to Tomusange, the robbers mounted a roadblock near his home and shot at his car robbing him of his valuables and car although it was later recovered by the police. 

“One of them shot a bullet directly through the windscreen but narrowly missed my head. He dragged me out of the car and ordered me to surrender all the money I had. They searched me as I pleaded with them to spare my life.

They instructed him to crawl to his home and they drove away. That is when I notified the police,” he narrated.
