An attack on a bullion van in Ondo State has again left two mobile policemen and one civilian dead.

The deceased persons fell to the bullets of gunmen suspected to be armed robbers on Wednesday evening in the Costain axis within the commercial town of Ore in Odigbo Local Government Area of the state.

The attack was coming barely two weeks after a bullion van was also attacked in the Emure-Ile axis of the state by robbers.
Sources say the dare-devil armed robbers opened fire on the bullion van and the escort van while on motion.

One of the sources said the bullion van was conveying an undisclosed amount of money to Rubber Estate, Araromi Obu, Odigbo Local Government when they ran into the robbers.

The robbers were said to have carted an unspecified amount of money after the attack.

With the attack being the third within the space of six weeks, a total of four policemen have so far been killed in the attacks.

Confirming the incident, the Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO) for Ondo State Police Command, DSP Funmilayo Odunlami, said a policeman and the driver of the bullion van were killed in the attack adding that the police were already on the trail of the robbers.

The Command spokesperson added that the remains of the deceased persons had been deposited at the morgue while those injured were already getting medical attention.
