Regrettably, one of the security operatives was fatally wounded, while one of the security operational vehicles was burnt by the bandits.
P.M.EXPRESS reports that during the ensuing gun battle and due to the superior fire of the Joint security team, the criminals abandoned one of their operational vehicles, a Toyota Sienna and fled the scene.
The Commissioner of Police, CP Ikioye Orutugu fwc MNIPS PhD, has condemned the act and viewed it as a test of Ndi Anambra’s collective resolve to work with the security forces to dislodge and eliminate criminal elements in the State.
The CP assured that the Command will apprehend the perpetrators behind this unpatriotic act.
According to the Police Spokesman, Tochukwu Ikenga, calm has returned to the area and security reinforced with more armed operatives currently combing nearby bushes for possible arrest of the fleeing miscreants.
