Gunmen attack Enugu Police station, cart away arms

Isi-Uzo Divisional police station in Ikem, Enugu state, was on Tuesday, July 18, attacked by gunmen who allegedly carted away police arms and ammunition.

 

Vanguard reported that the assailant stormed the unfenced police station at about 2 am on Tuesday with a Toyota Sienna bus, shouting “Release Nnamdi Kanu,” “No Nnamdi Kanu, no peace.”

 

A source told the publication;

 

“They came through Eha-Amufu and left through the same axis but it’s not possible they got to Eha-Amufu township or crossed to Nkalagu, otherwise they would have been encountered by the soldiers in that area. It’s possible they went through Aguamede to Benue state.”

 

A policeman on night duty at the police station was shot but was not killed.
