One of the sources who spoke with journalists said the hoodlums killed about six policemen, burnt their vehicles and stole their AK-47 rifles.

The source said, “Around 7pm, we started hearing gun shots along the road. It lasted for about 30 minutes.

“I can’t say how many policemen were killed, but the policemen on the checkpoint were six. What I can tell you is that up to six people were killed in the incident. Some of the hoodlums may among.”

The state Police Public Relations Officer, Daniel Ndukwe, confirmed the incident but failed to provide the number of casualty.

Ndukwe in a text message sent to newsmen, “I’m under the weather. I need to verify that and revert, please.”

The incident came barely one week after a military checkpoint was attacked in Adani in Uzo-Uwani LGA and soldiers killed.
