He added that the command received a new distress call from the members of the public that armed robbers were operating freely at Sabo area in Ore without being challenged.
“So, detectives trailed them to the Christ Foundation Primary School in Ore and on sighting them, the robbers opened fire and engaged them in a gun duel. One of the armed robbery suspects, one Bukola Adeoye, aka ‘agbara’, who has been on our wanted list, sustained gunshot injury on his right leg,” he said.
