There was a gun battle before the suspected robbers were killed

It was gathered that the vehicle the robbers used was razed by
an angry mob after the robbers were killed.
Police Public Relations Officer, ASP Irene Ugbo, confirmed the
incident.
“Yes five were gunned down after a gun battle and a chase from
SARS at Barracks Road. They had robbed around that axis when our men were
alerted and chased them. There was a shootout and five of them were gunned
down,” Ugbo said.
She said some weapons and cash were recovered from the robbers.
