In the beginning of the clip, the attacker randomly shoots at law enforcement representatives.

The video that was published on the Investigative Committee's Youtube channel, then shows non-targeted shots by security officials toward the gunman's legs. After that, the assailant tried to escape but fell to the ground after another shot by law enforcement officers.

The attacker was wounded in return fire, disarmed and has been taken to a hospital, where he later died of his wounds.
