A notorious armed robber, simply identified as Tompolo, has been shot dead by security agents in the Enerhen area of Uvwie local government area of Delta State.
The Nation gathered that the hoodlum, who was actually shot dead on April 9 by a combined team of policemen from the Enerhen Divisional Police Station and members of Sedco Community Vigilante, had reportedly dispossessed a female victim of a huge amount of money on that day.
According to sources, Tompolo at about 5:00 a.m., robbed an unidentified woman at gunpoint around Dugbo Estate.
He had earned a terror identity for himself around the Enerhen/Udu Road axis of the Warri metropolis.
The deceased, it was gathered, was in company of three other accomplices who escaped with gunshot wounds.
One of the sources said, “Tompolo and his boys had robbed a woman who was going to the market of her handbag containing a huge sum of money. The hoodlum and his gang members had been terrorising neighbourhoods around here for a long period.”
The Divisional Police Officer of the Enerhen police station, Hassan Galadima, a Chief Superintendent of Police, confirmed the development, saying three other suspects escaped with gunshot wounds.
