Unknown Gunmen Kill Two Policemen, Steal Their AK 47 Riffles In Kaduna
Two of the six policemen who were manning the checkpoint were said to have escaped unhurt.
The bandits were also said to have made away with two AK47 rifles belonging to their victims.
The deceased officers were of
the rank of sergeant, deployed to the area to check the activities of
bandits who have been raiding communities and killing people.
Enoch Andong, a resident of
the area who was among those who carried the injured policemen to the
Kafanchan General Hospital said that
the incident occurred at about 9:30am when the gunmen swooped on the
policemen and opened fire.
“This morning, around 9:30am,
two policemen were killed by gunmen along Kagoro-Gidan Waya Road. We
strongly believe they are Fulani herdsmen that have been killing people
in our communities.
“There were six policemen at
the checkpoint, two of them were killed and their AK47 rifles were
taken away by the herdsmen.
Two others sustained serious injuries from
gun shots while the remaining two managed to escaped unhurt.”
