The police in Enugu State say their operatives have begun trailing the masked hoodlums that attacked the Inyi Police Station in Oji River Local Government Area of the state.

The Command’s spokesperson, DSP Daniel Ndukwe, gave the confirmation to reporters in Enugu on Sunday.

Mr Ndukwe said: “Police operatives are on the trail of the masked hoodlums. Further development will be communicated on the incident, please.”

The police spokesman, however, did not give the timing, material or the human casualties involved in the attack.

A witness, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said that the armed hoodlums in their numbers attacked the station at 8:00 a.m. on Sunday.

He noted that two persons, one of them confirmed to be a policeman, were critically wounded by the rampaging hoodlums at the station during the attack.
