Upon the distress call, the Dpo mobilized his men, in collaboration with local vigilante and stormed the scene.

Recovered from them are; one locally fabricated single barrel pistol, three live cartridges, one dagger casing and assorted charms.

The two injured persons have been taken to hospital by the police for urgent medical treatment. 

Meanwhile, the commissioner of police, CP Edward Awolowo Ajogun, has ordered the transfer of the suspects to state criminal investigation and intelligence department for discreet investigation. The Cp also reiterated that, the war against cultism in the state is a continuous one, and the command will not rest until the vices is completely eradicated in all parts of the state.
