The armed bandits reportedly fired shots at the police after spotting them, and the police responded by firing back.

But the robbers with guns ran into the forest. When the police returned to the location, they discovered an automatic pump action gun, 47 rounds of BB ammunition, two empty cartridges, and one of the robbers—who they thought to be Fulani—in the bush with gunshot wounds.

After being sent to the Leyaata Hospital, the armed robber was declared dead upon arrival. In the interim, the body has been placed in the same hospital’s morgue pending further proceedings.
