ChannelsTv reports that an eyewitness whose brother was killed by the suspected armed robbers, at about 1:15 am this morning, said some men in military uniform armed with AK 47 rifles stormed the house of one Abdullahi Tandama and Alhaji Sufyanu.
However, collective resistance by community members led to the death of two of the gunmen after they killed one of the residents.
“My brother and few others were sleeping outside our main house but the hail of gunfire woke them up to assist but they later got killed, although we do not have guns, we outnumbered them with bow and arrows, we killed two of them before they eventually retreated on hearing the arrival of the police,” the eyewitness said.

The command also confirmed that special anti-robbery squad unit is currently on the trail of the fleeing suspects.
Meanwhile, twelve people have been confirmed dead as a result of the clash in Kasuwan Magani in Kaduna state.
