Gunmen abduct 2 expatriates in Rivers

Yet-to-be-identified gunmen allegedly dressed in military outfits have abducted two foreigners in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

It was gathered that the expatriates were kidnapped at noon on Thursday, by armed men who escaped with the victims through Ndoki Street waterfronts.

It was learnt that the suspected gunmen drove in two Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) and a Hummer Bus, all with tinted glasses into the scene of the incident at Ndoki Estate.

Sources said the armed men, dressed in military uniforms had kidnapped the victims, suspected to be Chinese amid sporadic gunshots.

Confirming the incident, the state Police Command says it has deployed a tactical team to apprehend the perpetrators and rescue victims.

The state Police spokesperson, DSP Grace Iringe-Koko, said “The CP has deployed adequate tactical team to ensure they are being released while the investigation is ongoing to arrest the perpetrators”.
