Source: http://towncrieronline.net/2016/12/22/4738/ Operatives of the Rivers State Police Command on Thursday foiled what would have been a major bank robbery. A combined team of Special Anti-Robbery Squad and regular policemen from Rumuolumeni Police Station stormed a new generation bank located at Eagle Cement, following a tip off. The hoodlums were said to have opened fire on the advancing police team led by a Divisional Police Officer, Felix Nnebue. According to eye-witness reports, a SARS operative was injured during the gun duel that ensued between the robbers and the policemen. The suspects were arrested while they were using a gas cylinder to cut open an entrance into the bank. The State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Nnamdi Omoni, who confirmed the incident to newsmen in Port Harcourt, said the bank robbers were arrested at about 2am on Thursday. Omoni disclosed that the SARS operative that sustained gunshot injury was immediately rushed to the hospital. He identified the three suspected bank robbers (all males) as Samuel Nwara (28) from Igwuruta town, Kaaly Taagaba (28) from Kpong, Khana LGA and Lucky Ukwuoma (26) from Etche LGA. “Today (Thursday) at about 0200hrs, upon a distress call that there was a robbery going on at a new generation bank at Eagle Cement, Rumuolumeni, combined team of SARS and men of the Rumuolumeni Police Station led by the DPO, Felix Nnebue stormed the scene of the robbery. “On sighting the police, the robbers opened fire on them, a situation that led to an exchange of fire. At the end, three armed robbers were arrested while one of the SARS operatives sustained gunshot wound. He is currently receiving treatment in the hospital,” he added. Explaining that the suspects were helping the police in their investigation with a view to arresting others on the run, Omoni listed one cooking gas cylinder, one handsaw, one chisel and two Ghana-must-go bags as items recovered from them. “The Commissioner of Police, CP Francis Odesanya, wishes to assure the people of the state that the Command under his watch has vowed to relentlessly fight all manner of crimes in the state. “He (Odesanya) has promised to make Rivers State safer, especially during the Yuletide period and urged the public to have confidence in the police and continue to share information with the police,” Omoni added. 2 Likes

Armed robbers attacking the banks in the night. Okay ooo. Their mates should usually do their "operations" in day light. The robbers were exchanging gun shots with police and they were arrested unscratched. There should be more to this news. We are not in US. After the alleged armed robbers have shot the operatives of SARS, the police now came close and shout at them as thus: "This is Nigeria Police, you are all under arrest for attempting to break into bank. Raise up your hands and knee down." Sergeant Pafu, bring handcuffs and arrest this bandits. 14 Likes |

Seems like the only job in rivers is either political thuggery, oil bunkery, oil pipe line vandalism, kidnapping, bank robbery, and recently, men killing rich women. What a state! 4 Likes 1 Share |

Hmmm. There was exchange of fire between the robbers and the police and only chisel, gas cylinder and ghana must go bags were recovered from the arrested robbers. Was it the gas cylinder they used to exchange fire. No gun or weapon was recovered. I reserve my comment. 6 Likes |
