As he was sitting in The barber’s chair, two men burst through The doors with guns coming straight towards Anastasia. Anastasia supposedly saw them in the reflection of the mirror and immediately had a clue who they were, leading him to allegedly run towards the two gunman. But, instead shot down by the now hitmen.
