Following the incident, law enforcement officials confirmed that a firearm has been recovered from the area. Detectives are actively pursuing leads to locate a man and a woman who were seen fleeing the scene immediately after the event occurred. The police have cordoned off parts of the city centre to facilitate forensic examination and gather evidence.

Authorities have appealed to the public for any information regarding the suspects or the incident itself.
