He said the victim observed that they were carrying a locally made pistol which did not look like a government issued arm. He raised alarm and began to struggle with the criminals.<\/p>\n

As a result, some good Samaritans heard his call and quickly came to his aid and the hoodlums took to their hells.<\/p>\n

The PPRO said the police rushed to the scene of the crime, and one locally made pistol was recovered.<\/p>\n

Three suspects, namely: Mujahid Muhd, Shahid Ibrahim and Haidar Muhd, all of GRA quarters Hadejia LGA, were later arrested.<\/p>\n

He said investigation was still ongoing to arrest other members of the syndicate.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
