It was gathered that the policemen were on the roadblock for the routine stop and search when the gunmen stormed the place and opened fire on them, killing 3 of the men immediately.

That the Gunmen were later repelled as they were unable to gain access into the Police Area Command which is situated inside the Ishielu Local Government Headquarters in Ezillo.

The corpses of the slain Policemen have been deposited at a mortuary in Abakaliki after they were confirmed dead by doctors.

When contacted, the Police Public Relations Officer PPRO DSP Loveth Odah confirmed the attack but did not give details of the casualty.
