March 12, 2015 – Pictures Of Robbery At FCMB Bank Lekki Phase 1 Estate Lagos Nigeria: 12 Robbers Escaped Via Lagoon, 4 Killed
Some robbers struck close to home today and I’m practically trembling.
Residents of Lekki Phase 1 this afternoon were terrified by the sound of gunshots from a 12-man robbery gang who attacked First City Monument Bank, FCMB on Admiralty Way.
According to eyewitnesses, the dare devils wore Military uniforms to carry out the coordinated attacks.
I hear the robbers killed 1 bank guard, two police escorts, a fish seller in the area in the 25-minutes long attack that happened around 5pm on Thursday.
Many reportedly abandoned their cars on Lekki Ikoyi link bridge and fled for their dear lives.
A police officer in charge of Lekki Ikoyi bridge reportedly fled with gunshot wounds after the dare devils confronted him.
The criminal gang later escaped in a nearby Lagoon after stealing an undisclosed chunk of cash from FCMB at Plot B, Waterfront Plaza, Admiralty Way, Lekki Phase 1.
See exclusive photos from the robbery below:
Robbery, terrorism,kidnapping, ritualism and every kind of unimaginable evil has become the order of the day in our land. Nigerians, where are we going???
May the souls of the victims rest in peace.
