Two armed robbers violently attacked an employee at Purple Haze Vape and Smoke in Milwaukee, leaving him with significant injuries that required hospitalization. The incident occurred just before 6 p.m. on Wednesday, where surveillance footage captured one assailant using a knife to confront the worker, while the other jumped the counter to physically assault him, causing severe head injuries and broken ribs.
Shop owner Fez Farooqui described the aftermath as deeply distressing, noting the emotional toll on his business, especially so close to the holiday season.

Farooqui has initiated a GoFundMe campaign to support his recovering employee, as local authorities continue to seek information on the suspects involved in this aggressive robbery.
