Ikenga said the incident occurred in the late hours of Thursday when the Anambra State Joint Security Team intercepted the armed men on Umuchu-Amesi-Uga Road in Aguata Local Government Area of the state.

The police spokesperson said that the security operatives however recovered one branded blue Hilux vehicle with Plate Number: GDD 440 TJ, a car suspected to have been snatched from an unsuspecting member of the public from the gunmen. 

He said that during a search conducted in the vehicle, coolers for food preservation were found. 

“The armed men were trailed after Police operatives resisted an attack on a Police Checkpoint at Ajali, Orumba North Local Government Area. 

“During the gun duel, one police personnel and one AVG Operative sustained gunshot injuries and are currently responding to treatment in a hospital. 

“Unfortunately, the two operational vehicles belonging to the AVG were caught up in fire and razed down completely. 

“Joint operations are still ongoing in the area and further developments would be communicated, please,” Ikenga said.
