Hoodlums Attack Kaduna Bank, Vandalise Vehicles 

Hoodlums, under the guise of protest on Monday, attacked a branch of a commercial bank in Tudun Wada area of Kaduna.

The criminals  vandalised the building using stones and other weapons. 

Several vehicles within the premises of the bank were smashed to shreds.

The miscreants also made away with some motorcycles parked within the premises of the bank 

Mansir Hassan, spokesperson of the Kaduna state police command, confirmed the incident on telephone call. 

According to him, the miscreants  invaded the bank, vandalised the building and destroyed some vehicles  within the bank premises.

The police spokesperson also dismissed rumours that a police armoured personnel carrier (APC) was snatched by  angry protesters in Tudun Wada.

He said, “the driver of the armoured vehicle succeeded in manoeuvring the crowd of protesters who climbed on top of the vehicle since it was carrying live ammunition and couldn’t have used maximum force against the crowd”.

Hassan also confirmed the burning down of a security patrol vehicle belonging to the Kaduna state Vigilance Service at Rigasa area of the metropolis.

He added that the  Zaria office of the Kaduna State Traffic Law Enforcement Agency (KASTLEA) was also razed by  hoodlums.
