Some suspected thugs on Monday morning broke into the Benin Prison popularly known as White House on Sapele road, Benin and freed inmates.
The thugs broke parts of the wall, climbing the high fence into the prison to free the inmates. The thugs were reported to have overpowered officials of the prison who confronted them in heavy gunshots.
In the raging jailbreak, valuable property at the High Court Four which is near the prison were destroyed, before the quick intervention of security agents.
Some hoodlums also took advantage of the situation to shoot openly into the air around St. Saviour’s Anglican Church Road in Upper Sokponba axis of Benin in Ikpoba/Okha Local Government Area of the state.
Curfew has now been imposed across the state to curb the spread of violence.
Details shortly…
