Nemesis have caught up with a
suspected robber, Chijioke Ikechi as a victim bite off his ear lobe
during a robbery attack at No.9 Ukaegbu road, Ogbor Hill, Aba, Abia
state. Ikechi and three other members of his gang had invaded the
residence, disposed their victim of N300, 000 and inflicted a machete
cut on a resident, Ndubuisi Mba.
Vanguard
gathered that residents of the area sent a distress call to a police
patrol team as one of the victims held on to Ikechi after biting off his
ear lobe while other members of the gang fled on sighting the police.
“We
heard shouts that armed robbers were robbing near our house and called
the police who did not waste time to come. When they saw the police,
other armed robbers ran away, the victim held on to one of them and the
police arrested him. We commend the Police team for answering our call,”
a resident told Vanguard.
Police
Public Relations Officer, PPRO, Abia state Command, Ezekiel Udeviotu
Onyeke, a Deputy Superintendent of Police, who confirmed the incident
said the police recovered a machete and an iron pipe fitted with wood
resembling a gun from the gang.
The
PPRO added that Mba who sustained a machete cut has been receiving
medical attention at an undisclosed hospital in the area and appealed to
the public to volunteer useful information that could help to nab the
fleeing gang members.
The Nigerian Police is all Tech these days oh! Kimon!!! They now answer to this distress calls. So cool...
