FCT police spokesperson, DSP Josephine Adeh, said: “in the wee hours of July 8, 2022, police responded promptly to a distress call foiling an armed robbery attempt, recovered stolen items, and set criminal tail in between their legs with various degrees of gun wounds at Kapuwa, Lugbe area of the FCT.

“This above followed the receipt of a distress call at about 2am that a 15-man armed robbery gang was operating at a compound in Kapuwa. Tactical and intelligence assets on duty drifted swiftly to the scene giving a hot chase to the criminals who had at that moment successfully gained access and removed personal effects from the said house and were on the run.

“Upon sighting the gallant and aggressive advancement of the Police team, the criminals engaged them in a gun duel but couldn’t match up with the superior firepower of the team. They retreated with various degrees of injuries while the Police recovered every single effect initially removed.”

The police also listed the stolen and recovered items as: A Honda Accord with REG NO. BWR778BK, Peugeot 307 with REG NO. MKA496BC, five flat-screen television, eight pairs of shoes, different types and sizes of clothes including a uniform, one mini Laptop, four ATM cards, one iPad, one Play station with two gaming pads and one Apple wrist watch.
