Enugu Police Foil Armed Robbery Attack, Neutralize One

The Enugu State Police Command repelled the assailants of an armed robbery attack, killing one suspect and detaining another.

SP Daniel Ndukwe, the command’s spokesman,  said the police recovered several incriminating items including one cut-to-size double-barreled gun with three live cartridges and two stolen Toyota Corolla cars and other incriminating exhibits.

Ndukwe said that on Feb. 24, operatives attached to the 9th Mile Police Division repelled an armed robbery attack along Owa Road in 9th Mile, neutralising one of the armed men while others escaped.

 

“A cut-to-size double-barreled gun with three live cartridges, weeds suspected to be Indian hemp, and other exhibits were recovered from the suspects.

“A manhunt for the other suspects, who fled with varying degrees of gunshot injuries, is ongoing,” he said.

He said, “The suspect confessed to stealing the vehicle from where it was parked in a compound at Orba in Udenu Local Government on Feb. 14.

He said the suspect had been arraigned in court and remanded at the Correctional Custodial Centre, pending the outcome of police investigations.

Similarly, Ndukwe said that on Feb. 1, at about 2a.m., operatives recovered a Toyota Corolla car that was reportedly stolen from where it was parked at Igbo-Eze Street, Independence Layout, Enugu.

“The hoodlums abandoned the vehicle and fled upon sighting the operatives who were on their trail. The car has since been released to its owner,” he said.

The spokesmen said that the Commissioner of Police, Mr Kanayo Uzuegbu, had reaffirmed the Command’s unwavering resolve to combat crime in Enugu State.

He noted that the commissioner had emphasised the importance of continuous support from citizens.
