Armed men on Sunday attacked police officers at the busy Oleh/Ozoro roundabout in Delta State and set their patrol van ablaze.

Vanguard reports that the two officers of the Police Dragon outfits were alleged to be shot before the attackers burnt the van.

This is coming barely a week after a police Inspector, Jude Ukpaka, attached to the Dragon Patrol 19 Team was gunned down on the Ogor/Evwreni axis of the East-West road.

A commercial driver, who plies the route and witnessed the scene, said vehicles had to park and drivers ran into the bush with their passengers as the suspected robbers shot sporadically.

Though he could not confirm the state of the two officers shot at the scene but said the patrol van of the police was set on fire by the suspects.
