                    ROBBERS KILL POLICE IN LAGOS AND SNATCHES RIFLE


Barely three days after armed robbers shot Inspector Ogedemgbe and a corporal dead at Ajao Estate, another policeman attached to Ejigbo Police Division was yesterday killed by robbers in Lagos State, southwest Nigeria.

The latest killing was at Oke Afa area at a popular joint where the corporal, simply identified as Emma, with his patrol team had gone to respond to a distress call about a robbery operation in the area.

It was gathered that when the police went to the joint, they were ambushed by the bandits who opened fire on them, killed the corporal and took away his gun, before shooting indiscriminately and escaping from the scene of the incident.

The policeman was later taken to Isolo hospital where he was certified dead and his body deposited at the mortuary for autopsy.

When contacted, a Deputy Superintendent of Police in the Lagos State Police Command, DSP Ngozi Braide, confirmed the incident in the absence of the Public Relations Officer, but declined further comment.

At the Ejigbo Police station, the police officers were seen in low spirits, mourning the death of their colleague.
