Kidnap Victim Rescued, Two Suspects Killed In Enugu
Eliminated Kidnapper
A combined team of police operatives drawn from the Nigeria Police Force Special Forces, Police Division, and Tactical Teams of the Enugu State Command, led by the Deputy Commissioner of Police in-charge of Operations, DCP Olasoji Akinbayo, Sunday, rescued a kidnap victim.
The operation, which took place about 8pm, happened at the Centenary, along Enugu/Port-Harcourt expressway, after a gun fight with the hoodlums.
“One of the miscreants, simply identified as ‘Baron’, was neutralized on-the-spot in the ensuing shootout, while others escaped with varying degrees of gunshot wounds,” the State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Daniel Ndukwe, stated on Tuesday.
It was gathered that the kidnap victim’s black-coloured Lexus 350 Jeep was recovered alongside one locally made revolver gun loaded with four cartridges and another locally fabricated pistol belonging to the criminal elements.
