Police station, Bank attacked in Bauchi

Suspected members of Boko Haram over the weekend attacked a Divisional police station and a branch of a new generation bank in Alkaleri local government area of Bauchi state. 
The attacks were carried out with a convoy of five cars in the town, which connects Adamawa, Gombe and Taraba states.
They reportedly killed a policeman guarding the bank and carted away undisclosed amount of money. 
A bike rider and a teenager were also reportedly injured during the ensuing cross-fire with security forces who they overpowered. 
Residents scampered for safety following bomb explosions, which rocked the area leading to many injuries.   
 The attack threw passers-by and petty traders in the area into confusion on hearing gunshots and sound explosives as they ran for their dear lives with some injuring themselves in the process.
An eyewitness who identified himself as Ali said “the people came in three vehicles and attacked the bank. They didn’t kill any body but I believe they took away a very huge sum of money’’
‘’When they came out of the bank, they started throwing some of the money at people who were not far from the bank but people were afraid to pick the money’’.
Spokesman of Bauchi Police Command, Mr. Mohammed Barau, could not be reached for confirmation.
