A bank staff and an armed robber were killed on Tuesday in a bullion van attack.

The incident occurred around 1pm at Ntigha junction along the Port Harcourt – Enugu Highway in Isiala Ngwa North Local Government Area of the state.

According to the Police Public Relations Officer of the state, SP Geoffrey Ogbonna, “Six mobile policemen attached to 28 PMF Umuahia and Counter Terrorist Unit Base 4 Aba, while escorting a bullion van conveying cash from one new generation commercial bank in Aba to Umuahia, suddenly ran into a blockade/ambush mounted by armed robbers.

“The armed robbers opened fire at the van which forced its driver to swerve into the bush where the Bank Cash Officer was shot dead by the hoodlums while the driver escaped.

“During the gun duel that ensued between the police escorts and the hoodlums, one of the hoodlums was neutralised and his AK 47 rifle with ammunition laden in three magazines strapped together was recovered.”

Ogbonna disclosed that three of the policemen were injured and taken to a hospital for treatment, adding that the bodies of the bank staff and the armed robber have been deposited at a morgue.

He further appealed to the public and proprietors of medical facilities in and outside the state to report any person seen or presented with suspected gun shot injuries to the police or any other security agency.
