Three people were shot dead when two men on a motorbike opened fire and escaped with a cash trunk being transferred to an ATM here Friday, police said.

The audacious robbery took place around noon in a busy area when the cash van, with four men including two guards, was moving the cash to the ATM.

The four men in the van were identified as Udai, Anil Singh, Avanish and Arun. It was not clear who among them were killed.
