Following the development, Nansel explained that the officers from \u2018B\u2019 Division responded swiftly after receiving a distress call about an ongoing armed robbery at the residence of one (name withheld), located at Shinge by Railway Quarters in Lafia.<\/p>\n

The robbers, the statement said, operated as a gang and had fled the scene with the stolen items before the police launched a manhunt, stressing that acting on intelligence, they were intercepted and two suspects, Basiru Lawal and Dahiru Mohammed, arrested at Jibo Filling Station along Jos Road, Lafia, in possession of the stolen Toyota Corolla.<\/p>\n

The spokesperson said efforts were ongoing to track down the fleeing gang members and recover the missing motorcycle, assuring that the suspects will be charged to court after investigation.<\/p>\n
