After a shoot-out with police, one of the suspects barricaded himself inside the building with staff and clients.
Mkuze police spokesperson Warrant Officer Zwelisha Gumbi said he added one of the suspects was wounded and later succumbed to his injuries.
The second suspect handed himself over to police shortly afterwards.
