NO fewer than six policemen and one civilian have been reportedly killed by
suspected Islamic militants, Monday afternoon in Misau, Bauchi State following

We gathered that the gunmen hurled a bomb at the station leading to
explosion and deaths of the five policemen on duty before successfully breaking
into the bank and carting away large sum of money.

the second time by gunmen in less than two months, is located 160 kilometres

afternoon and started shooting sporadically, resulting in the deaths of the
policemen and the civilian and many injured.
