The Delta State Police Command has arrested four out of a six-man gang of armed robbers who specialize in burgling warehouses, schools, and churches. The gang was known for terrorizing Warri, Sapele, Oghara and other parts of Delta State and specialises in breaking into churches, companies, and warehouses while armed with guns.

The suspects, Okoro Udochukwu of Ore II Community, and Sunday Dickson of Ore II Community, were trailed to a hotel at Aziza Junction on Sapele Road, where they were arrested. The suspects carried out their operations using two Sienna vehicles and one shuttle bus to transport the stolen items. Preliminary investigations revealed that on May 26, 2024, they allegedly robbed a warehouse in Warri and stole 112 bags of rice, some of which they had already sold.

'In compliance with the CP's directive, the DPO swiftly embarked on an intelligence-led operation and on June 24, 2024, around 18:30 hours, trailed the suspects to the hotel. 'A diligent search was conducted at their stores and houses, which led to the recovery of 38 bags of rice, one Silver Crest blender, one inverter engine with two inverter batteries, three Sharp photocopying machines, and two Sharp standing AC units.
