Men of the Rivers State police command have shot dead four notorious armed robbers terrorising the Adam axis of Oyigbo Local Government Area of the State.
The incident was said to have happened in the early hours of Monday morning.
According to Punch, the gunmen had lodged in a hotel in Oyigbo after one of their operations when a team of policemen trailed them to the hideout.
It was learnt that the policemen attached to Adam Divisional Police Station shot and killed the bandits before they (hoodlums) could get hold of their guns.
The security operatives were led by one Inspector Chris, who ensured that all escape routes within the hotel were blocked before the Armed robbers were killed.
When contacted, the State Police Public Relations Officer, Mr. Nnamdi Omoni, told Punch that he was not aware of the incident, but would only speak as soon as he got details from the Divisional Police Officer in the area.
