It was a bloody Tuesday at the Alaba
International Market, Ojo, Lagos, when a gang of heavily robbers attacked staff
of new generation bank who were transferring money from a branch of the bank to
another, killing two policemen and four others in the process.
It was gathered that
several other passerby sustained injuries during the escape bid of the bandits
who snatched a large sum of money from the bank staff.
An eyewitness who pleaded anonymity said
that the bandits positioned themselves at a strategic location in the market
and opened fire on sighting them, killing the policemen and a yet to be
identified woman on the spot before snatching the money.
The bandits were also said to
have shot indiscriminately in a bid to escape which led to the death of
three other persons whose identities are yet to be ascertained.
On a visit to the market, most of the
traders were seen in clusters talking about the incident.
Some of them blamed the bank for not
providing enough security while making huge cash transfer, while others called
on the police authorities to track down the hoodlums.
Sources said that police
had commenced investigation into the incident, saying some officials of the
bank have been arrested.
