Two armed robbers who invaded the premises of a businessman had reason to turn on each other after successful operation, and only one left the scene alive.
The victim identified as Jonah Onche at Naka, headquarters of Gwer West Local Government Area of Benue State was also dead.
Sources from Naka explained that it happened around 2:00 am Sunday when the robbers, known cultists in the community, attacked the building.
They asked the businessman to bring the money in his house, and he did, pleading for his life.
One of the robbers, however, collected the money and shot the man in the chest.
The other robber, sources said, saw what happened, and shot his colleague, a pastor’s son, before running off with the money.
Police said investigation has started to track and arrest the other robbers.
