Rivers Police Raid Hideout, Arrest 51 Suspected Robbers 

No fewer than 51 suspected criminals were arrested when a combined team of security officials raided their hideout near a brothel along Azikiwe Street in Mile 2 area of Diobu, Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

It was learned that the arrest followed a distress call to the police that the hoodlums were robbing residents at gunpoint and carting away their mobile telephones and other valuables.

A source also told our correspondent that two rival cult groups known as the “Junior Vikings” and “De-gbam” had clashed on Monday night, shattering the serenity of the area.

When contacted, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Grace Iringe-Koko, confirmed the arrest, saying the investigation was ongoing.
Fringe-Koko said following a distress call, a combined team of police and other operatives stormed the area and gave the hoodlums a hot chase.

Fringe-Koko, a superintendent of police, called on residents to feel free to volunteer useful information to the police that may lead to the arrest of criminal elements.
