On May 26, 2011, a masked man with a sawed-off shotgun, and black cellophane bag would walk into a Klassika Pharmacy at 34 Lenina Prospekt in the Chelyabinsk city center in Chelyabinsk, Russia. There were a total of 8 people in the pharmacy. There were 4 employees and 4 customers. He would then demand valuables from everyone inside saying "I need 60 thousand rubles. Put the money in, whoever doesn’t want to, can move away, but I will shoot you in the stomach."
The people inside would oblige and give up their money and valuables. Two women would enter and would end up also giving their jewelry. Four of the people inside were able to escape through an exit in another room.
49-year-old Vladamir Shin entered the pharmacy. He would see the robbery happening and began to run out the front door. The Masked man would scream "Stop" just before shooting Vladamir in the chest. This would kill him and the masked man would flee the scene
He was described as wearing a medical mask, glasses, and a hat. Items given to the man were gold chains, bracelets, a ring, a cross, a church pendant, and money.
Around 5:30 on August 10, 2011, the man would once again walk into another Klassika Pharmacy. This one was 500 meters from the first one. This time upon entering he would shoot 30-year-old Igor Ustinov. Others in the Pharmacy would run into another room and huddle in a corner.
He would walk outside reload his gun and then come back inside. He would walk past Igor who was laying on the ground suffering from his wound. He would then ask "Where is he?" and then turn around and finish killing Igor by shooting him in the face several times.
According to witnesses, he stated "It's all your fault, it's all your fault white coats. When he was satisfied that Igor was dead he placed the gun into the black cellophane bag and left. He changed the direction he was walking several times and police were able to follow him on CCTV until Truda Street about a kilometer from the pharmacy.
Witnesses from the first scene stated that he was a man between 27 and 35 years old. He's 5'9" to 6'0" and 180 to 185 lbs. He is blonde with a face full of acne. He was wearing a jacket with blue and green stripes, blue jeans, and a dark-colored baseball cap. The only difference between the first description of him and the second it seemed as if he was sickly. He had a yellow look to his skin.
According to witnesses, the criminal looked ridiculous and behaved uncertainly. He was also heard expressing himself in phrases used by stereotypical American soldiers. It's possible that the murderer robbed people from the first scene to cover up the fact that he resented the pharmacy chain, "maybe, he cannot purchase some kind of drug.". He may have been sick with something as he was looking yellow during the second murder.
