The Delta State Police Command has recovered a locally made gun abandoned by two suspected armed robbers who invaded a residence in Effurun, while a suspected drug peddler was arrested in a separate operation in Agbor.
The Police Public Relations Officer of the state command, SP Bright Edafe, made this known in a statement issued on Tuesday.
The command said the robbery incident occurred around 5:30am on September 4, 2026, when two masked men armed with a locally made shotgun broke into the residence of a 48-year-old man in the Charlisco area, along the NPA Express Road, Effurun.
According to the command, the victim confronted one of the suspects and “wrestled with the suspect carrying the firearm,” during which the gun broke.
