Panic As Gunmen Kill Police Inspector In Port Harcourt

Gunmen ambushed and attacked police officers on a stop and search duty at the Eliozu Flyover in Obio/Akpo Local Government Area of Rivers State on Wednesday night, killing an Inspector.

The gunmen, who were spotted in a carton-colored Sienna bus with fully tinted glasses, drove in from the Rumuodumaya axis and opened fire on the police team, which resulted in the tragic loss of one Inspector who valiantly gave his life in the line of duty.

The police team responded with bravery, engaging the attackers and managing to neutralize one of them with a mask on his face, while the others managed to escape.

The Commissioner of Police, Olatunji Disu, has reiterated that those who perpetrate violence against policemen or any citizen will face the full weight of the law.

The police urge all law-abiding citizens to continue with their daily activities without panic, as they are determined to uphold their mandate of preserving lives and property in the face of such challenges.
