Banker, two others killed in Abia

According to the Abia State Commissioner of Police, CP Danladi Isa, Victor Udensi, an employee of Zenith Bank at Umuahia branch, and two others were killed on Monday in Umuahia.

The PK, who disclosed this while parading some of the suspects at the Umuahia Police Headquarters, told the public that the criminals would be brought to justice soon.

He explained that Udensi stopped at the Isi court axis in Olokoro, Umuahia South at about 8pm after a long day of work when he was approached by three armed men operating a keke.

They tried to push him into the trunk of the car.

Udensi, however, resisted, and when he tried to escape, the attackers shot him in the back, leaving him in a pool of blood.

After failing to start the vehicle, the attackers clashed with another careless Camry driver.

“When they tried to forcefully take his car keys, the driver resisted.
However, the armed men shot him, killing him on the spot,” Isa said.

Fleeing towards Ubakal, the attackers saw Keke, who they believed was obstructing their escape, and fatally shot the driver.

According to an eyewitness, passers-by took Udensi to the hospital, but he died shortly after treatment began.

PK also added that the police had launched a manhunt for the attackers.
