Sporadic gunshots rented the air in Dutse-Baupuma area of the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) on Friday, as police officers engaged hoodlums, who were looting remnants of illegal structures being demolished by a Taskforce of the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA).

Trouble started when scavengers started looting properties of people whose houses were demolished by the FCDA taskforce.

The hoodlums were seen dragging different household properties with the owners. Anyone who stands their way was either injured or have all his house looted by the hoodlums.

Our correspondent observed that armed security officers who were in the convoy of the Taskforce team of the FCDA started shooting in the air when the hoodlums overpowered the residents, causing serious havoc.

The residents said that has been the situation since Wednesday this week when the authorities started the demolition of houses in the area over an offensive erosion that swept many houses in the areas between Sunday, June – 26 and Monday – 27 this week.
