It was a bad day for policemen escorting a bullion van
purportedly belonging to an old generation bank as they
were waylaid by dare-devil armed robbers who opened fire
on the team before making away with the cash-laden van at
Elemoso village along Ondo-Akure Road in the Ondo East
Local Government Area of the state.
The robbers who were said to have laid ambush for the van,
were said to have escaped with undisclosed amount of
money.
Reports have it that the bullion van and the escort vehicle
were found ridden with bullets after the incident which was
said to have occurred at about 4.50pm.
An eyewitness reported that the policemen that escorted the
bullion van were caught unawares after the armed robbers
rained bullets on the police escort vehicle and the bullion
van simultaneously.
He said:
The policemen and the driver of the van took to their heels
immediately the hoodlums opened fire on them. The
operation lasted for just about seven minutes.
The speed breaker erected on the highway helped the armed
men. They overtook the vans and opened fire on the
policemen before they could realise what was going on. The
men were better equipped because they operated with
confidence.
The Ondo State Commissioner of Police, Isaac Eke,
described the attack as shocking, adding that the police had
launched a manhunt to track and arrest the robbers.
The command suspects conspiracy in the attack. Official
booking of security was not made at the Police Operations
Department before the assignment was carried out.
Also, none of the escort police officers in the convoy had
reported to the station. Their whereabouts remained
unknown.
But we will soon arrest and bring the hoodlums to book. All
law abiding citizens are advised to go about their lawful
business.
