Tragedy in New Zealand Sikh Community

Auckland police hope security camera footage will help catch the three men involved in a deadly robbery in south Auckland.

One of the robbers shot liquor store owner Navtej Singh  in the chest even though he had his hands up and was obeying demands to hand over cash. 
 
Thirty-year-old Navtej Singh died in Middlemore Hospital early Monday morning.
 
Police say the shooting was extremely callous.
 
The dead man leaves a wife and three daughters aged between six months and five years.
