ASP Toyin Gbadegesin,
Police Public Relations Officer in Yobe State, says a police constable
suspected to have gone insane on Friday killed two senior policemen.
He told the News Agency of Nigeria in Nangere, Yobe State, that the
suspect thereafter shot himself.
“A constable in Nangere
went berserk this morning, grabbed a rifle and shot two inspectors who died
instantly.
“He shot himself too
but did not die instantly but was rushed to the hospital.
“The cause of his
action is not known yet but investigation into the unfortunate incident has
begun to unravel the remote and immediate cause of his action,” Gbadegesin
said.
Hospital staff who
pleaded anonymity also confirmed the death of the policemen, saying that “the
three bodies have been deposited at General Hospital, Potiskum.”
