Subsequently, the Police in Kaduna have confirmed the attack on the train on Monday night.
The force however denied that the attack was carried out by gunmen.
The Command Public Relations Officer, ASP Mohammed Jalige, said that the train which left Abuja for Kaduna arrived safely.
He however, said some miscreants threw stones at the moving train around Rijana village, close to Kaduna.
“It was not a bullet or bow and arrow, what they threw are not aggressive weapons. It was not an attack, the train was moving. Our men in Rijana are on top of the situation,” he added.
The command spokesman assured that a thorough investigation would be conducted and anyone found to be involved in the incident would be punished.
“So far no suspect has been arrested but our men have been deployed in the area to trail the suspects,” Mr Jalige said.
The police however failed to disclose that the train suffered damage while a passenger was injured.
Our correspondent learnt that the stones at the train broke a glass window of one of the coaches with the flying glasses hitting a female passenger who suffered minor injury.
