“Yes, the police is aware of the incident, we are preparing a statement, as soon as it is ready we’ll get back to you,” Butswat told newsmen.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) gathered that the officers killed during the attack included the Divisional Police Officer (DPO), a pregnant policewoman and two policemen who were on duty.

A source who preferred anonymity also told journalists that the suspected gunmen stormed the police station in the early hours of Monday (July 1) and started shooting sporadically.
