A police Corporal created panic Monday night in
Benin, as he went on rampage, killing an Inspector and shooting another
Police Corporal in the process.
The deceased Inspector was said to be on an official duty at a first generation bank located on Agbor Road, when he was shot by the suspect, who was identified as Oziegbe Omobude.
The incident reportedly occurred at Iyoha Road, Ikpoba Hill, Benin City.
The suspect was said to have also attacked and shot a fellow police corporal, who boarded the same bus with him, ostensibly for suspecting that he saw him kill the Police Inspector.
The Corporal, who was identified as Ayinla, was said to have alighted from the bus and was demanding for his balance from the bus driver when the suspect shot him and ordered the driver to drive off.
The injured police Corporal was said to have been taken to an undisclosed hospital at Ikpoba Hill, where the corpse of the late Inspector was also said to have been deposited.
The police authorities in Benin did not say anything on the incident or the suspect, who is said to hail from Uokhai, Owan East Local Government Area of the state.
When contacted, spokesman of the Edo State Police Command, Moses Eguavoen, said he was yet to be briefed on the incident.
