Two shot and one kidnapped in a bank robbery operation in Delta

Two individuals have been reportedly shot, while one person was abducted by unidentified gunmen who attacked a commercial bank in the Ughelli area of the state.

The unidentified men allegedly trailed a bank customer who was about to make a deposit and blocked him outside the bank but met with resistance from operatives of the Delta State Police Command.

Sharing videos from the attack, social media user #eonsintelligenc wrote:

“A branch of the United Bank for Africa in Ughelli, Delta State, was attacked by unidentified gunmen in a brazen daylight robbery attempt this afternoon. Report indicates that the assailants trailed a bank customer who was about to make a deposit and blocked him outside the bank. Within three minutes of the customer entering the bank, the gunmen began their operation.

The robbers were met with resistance from police officers stationed at the bank, leading to a gunfight that prevented the assailants from entering the building. During the clash, two individuals were reportedly shot, and one person was abducted. The robbers escaped in a gold-coloured Toyota Venza. The injured victims were swiftly transported to an undisclosed hospital for medical treatment.”

Gunmen rob Delta bank customer, police begin probe

A customer of a new generation bank in Ughelli, Delta State, was on Friday mugged by gunmen suspected to be armed robbers while he was on its premises to deposit some money.

City Round gathered that the gunmen numbering about five in a Toyota Venza, had trailed the unidentified customer to the bank premises on Isoko Road before they shot sporadically which hit the bank’s security guard and two other individuals.

Witnesses said the customer had yet to enter the banking hall when the gunmen struck and eventually made away with three ‘Ghana Must Go’ bags containing money.

The security guard and two others were said to have sustained gunshot injuries from the hoodlums who were reportedly armed with sophisticated ammunition and operated unchallenged before they zoomed off the bank premises.

Confirming the incident to our correspondent, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Edafe Bright, said, “A customer who was going to the bank to deposit money was double-crossed before he could enter the bank and robbed. It’s not a bank robbery. Nigerians need to avoid sensation. Nobody died, but someone sustained an injury.

"The gunmen invaded the bank in Delta and shot a security guard and others. An investigation has since commenced. Someone was injured and taken to the hospital, but it’s not certain if it was the customer.”

Nice job by the police

Well done to the NPF 👏, quick recovery to the injured.

Our officers are trying whenever they want to work but the way our government will just abandon their families after their demise do discourage many, even to pay their death benefit na war.

This country is gradually sinking. Crimes everywhere. No one and nowhere is safe.

Hopefully those shot would not lose their lives. Hopefully the victim was not harmed and money not lost.
Hopefully the abducted is found shortly.
Hopefully the criminals are caught and punished in accordance with the law.

UGM don move to South South.

Yet a certain Politician is advocating for the release of their leader.

Gbegiri politics brought all these insecurities in Nigeria.

Never knew there's hunger in Delta State.

I tot they're all swimming in crude oil?

Ehen?

Get rich or die trying don mislead these ones. SMH

Bank robbery has returned

Tinubu is working

Joblessness leads to break down of law & order, which Peter Obi has been preaching.

People are hungry, what do you expect from poor people is high rate of criminality, police will work tire , and prisons will full

There is hunger in the land.
The government and Elites should wake up to their social responsibilities, sharing deceptive palliative is not the best approach...

This blunt ignorance to realities is breeding an army of willing tools for state actors.

It might no be now, tomorrow or next week but one day, everyone could just wake up to flames...

Address issues from grassroots not throwing audio palliatives!!!

God bless the good and hardworking people of Nigeria!!

Must be these benin boys who migrated to delta.

But the robbers operation was successful despite the police alleged resistance.The kidnapped and went away with a venza.
I still doubt if the police put up a resistance.

Wow banks still get robbed in this country?
It's well, I hope for speedy recovery to the injured.
