The eyewitness said three of the policemen died on the spot as two others ran off to take refuge inside a shop. However, the gunmen chased and caught up with them before killing them and the couple who own the shop.

The gunmen were said to have carted away the rifles of the slain officers after killing them.

The Police Public Relations Officer in Imo, Henry Okoye, said he was yet to be briefed on incident as of press time.

Daily Report Nigeria recalls that some fleeing gunmen ambushed and killed five personnel of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps in the same Ngor Okpala LGA on March 27.
