Enugu Police Recover Firearm, Ammunition From Escaping Suspects

The Enugu State Police Command on Sunday arrested and recovered one locally-fabricated double-barrel gun with two cartridges (one live and the other expended), from hoodlums suspected to be armed robbers in the state.

New Telegraph gathered that the suspected armed robbers were escaping the crime scene at New Artisan Bridge, off Enugu-Port Harcourt Expressway when nemesis caught up with them.

DSP Daniel Ndukwe,  the Command Spokesman who made the development known in a statement he issued in Enugu said the feat was achieved by police operatives serving at the New Haven Division of the Command on June 16.

“The hoodlums abandoned their firearm with the ammunition on sighting police operatives, who immediately went on their trail, following the receipt of credible information that the miscreants were sighted in the location, perfecting their criminal plans.

“Meanwhile, discreet investigative and moves to fish out the fleeing criminal elements are underway.

“Further development on the matter shall be made public,” he said.
