An attack by unknown gunmen has led to the deaths of 10 people and the injury of one in Kulben community, Mangu Local Government Area of Plateau State.
Mr. Jerry Datim, a member of the community, told the newsmen on Monday in Jos, the state capital, that the event happened on Sunday night.
“Last night, at about 8:40 p.m., some gunmen attacked the Kulben community, killing 10 people and injuring one.
“The criminals invaded the village and started shooting sporadically. People started running to safety, but the bullets killed some, whose bodies were later found.
“We alerted the security personnel, but before they got there, the attackers had moved from the community,’’ he said.
A senior officer, who requested anonymity, told reporters that the Plateau State Police Command is on the hunt for the gunmen.
He promised that the killers would face the full force of the law.
