Commissioner of Police CP Echeng led the crack squad when responding to the distress call as the station came under attack by the deadly gang.
“The Police Operatives decisively dealt with the assailants,” he said
Ikenga noted during the gun duel, one of the gunmen was neutralized and due to the superior fire of the Police Operatives made the assailants flee the scene.
