Three persons, including a policeman and two
employees of a communication outlet, one of
who was a pregnant woman, were in the early
hours of Monday gunned down by a female-led
gang of robbers in Port Harcourt.
The incident, which occurred at about 8.30a.m.
opposite the Collectibles Accessories shop on
Rumuola Road, also left the fourth victim
wounded.
Sources told the Nigerian Tribune that the dead
victims, who were riding in a gray Volkswagen
Jetta, were either on their way to deposit money
or had just withdrawn same from one of the
new generation banks around the area when the
robbers stopped their vehicle, shot them and
took away the money.
The fourth victim, it was gathered, was seeing a
friend off when a stray bullet hit him .
It was further learnt that the gang of armed
robbers included two females and three males,
who were brandishing an unusual kind of
machine guns.
“It was like they trailed the people to that point. I
am not sure, but I guess they had just
withdrawn the money or they were on their way
to deposit the money when they were attacked.
The leader of the gang is a woman. She was the
one who pulled the trigger on the people in the
car and carried the money.
“It took them about 10 minutes to kill, rob and
escape from the spot. They went through NTA
Road and while they were robbing, there was no
policeman or security operative that confronted
them or tried to stop them,” an eyewitness said.
Confirming the incident, the Police Public Relations
Officer of the Rivers police command, Ben
Ugwuegbulam (DSP), said the hoodlums, besides
killing the victims, also robbed them of a yet-to-
be ascertained amount and GSM recharge cards
