On Monday morning, an unidentified visitor was slain at Enugu’s famed Chris Chemist Roundabout.
Our correspondent learned that the attackers used a minibus. At the scene of the killing, the unknown individuals allegedly set fire to a Sienna bus.
A witness said the aim of the attackers could not be ascertained. He however said, “Today is sit-at-home. The victim seemed to be travelling.”
The victim was transported to hospital, where he was proven dead, according to ASP Daniel Ndukwe, Enugu State Police Command’s PRO.
He said, “Yet-to-be identified miscreants, operating in a mini-bus, shot an unidentified male traveller and in the process torched a Sienna vehicle around Chris Chemist Roundabout, Enugu, in the early morning hours of today.
“The victim was immediately moved to the hospital for treatment by the police operatives.
“They responded to a distress call on the incident. He was later confirmed dead by doctors on duty. The remains were deposited in the mortuary for preservation and autopsy.
“Manhunt of the assailants has been launched. The state generally remains relatively peaceful.”
Many residents who had gone out were forced to return home for their own safety as a result of the incident. In the state capital, security patrols have been stepped up.
Chris Chemist, in the center of Ogbete Main Market, is less than a kilometer from the state police command’s offices, according to our correspondent.
