Four men in a car waylaid the cash van of an agency filling ATMs of ICICI bank in the posh Defence Colony area this afternoon, then opened fire at the guard and fled with the vehicle which is believed to have around Rs five crore.

The robbers left their car bearing Haryana registration number -- HR 26 AQ 0051 -- at the spot.

They also abandoned the van in Hauz Rani area in Malviya Nagar, a few kms away. No cash was found inside the van.
