Robbers Attack Bullion Van In Ondo, Shoot Policeman

Armed robbers attacked a bullion van along the Akure/Owo Highway in Ondo State on Wednesday, shooting a policeman in the process.

According to Channels TV, the Public Relations Officer of Ondo State Police Command, DSP Funmi Odunlami, confirmed that the attack occurred close to Emure-Ile junction along the highway.

The robbers were however unable to cart away any funds as the bullion van was not carrying any cash when they struck, Odunlami added.

Meanwhile, a team of policemen has been deployed to the area to apprehend the armed robbers and the injured policeman is being treated at a nearby hospital.
