An 18-year-old man, Happy Eforpor, of Edere-Aviara in Isoko South Local Government Area of Delta State has been arrested for threatening to kill a girl and her mother if the girl refused his love advances.

Police surveillance team received information that Eforpor, in company with two suspected cult members, went to the house of one Fejiro Independence in the same locality and asked her to be his girlfriend. But the she refused. Irked by her refusal, the suspects started to exchange words with the girl and when her mother tried to intervene, Eforpor pulled out a locally-made pistol and threatened to shoot them.

The state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), DSP Celestina Kalu, disclosed this in Asaba yesterday. She said: “On receipt of the information, detectives were quickly despatched to the scene and arrested the said Happy Eforpor.” The PPRO, however, Eforpor’s accomplice, Samson Dick, escaped. Kalu said one Oghenemaro Onowo of Edere-Aviara town, who allegedly aided the escape of the said Dick, was also arrested. She listed the items recovered from Eforpor to include a locally-made pistol and one expended cartridge.

The PPRO added that investigation was on while efforts had been intensified to apprehend the fleeing Dick. Meanwhile, two suspected armed robbers have died during a shootout with policemen at Abakaliki, Ebonyi State. The gunmen stormed the Rice Mill junction on old Ogoja Road, Abakaliki and the Mechanic Village and dispossessed a couple of N250,000 realised from sales of rice.

The robbers also went into the Mechanic Village and attacked a scrap dealer. They were later confronted by some policemen who arrived the scene following a distress call. Confirming the incident, the state Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), ASP George Okafor, said policemen went to the area immediately they received the distress call.

He said: “On sighting policemen, the hoodlums opened fire on them and the policemen responded. The robbers were later overpowered and the robbers were gunned down.” The PPRO disclosed that cash was recovered by the police at the end of the gun battle and that the pistol which the hoodlums used in the robbery was also recovered.

Okafor warned criminals to leave the state or be ready to meet their waterloo. He also appealed to the people to continue to volunteer information on the activities of criminals to the police.
