POLICEMEN KILLED AND BURNT BY GUNMEN AT A CHECKPOINT IN EDO

Four police officers including one sergeant Christian (pictured below) were attacked and killed by unknown assailants yesterday in Sabongidda-Ora, Edo state. According to an eyewitness, Oliha Collins, the attackers laid ambush in a bush as they waited for the policemen to resume duty at their check point.

While the driver of the police vehicle was trying to park in a get way position, the hoodlums came out of their hiding place and opened fire on the policemen.

To be sure the officers were really dead, the attackers set them and their vehicle on fire before fleeing the scene.

May their souls rest in peace.
