Operatives of the Nigeria Police, “B” Division, Warri, Delta State, on Sunday, November 16, 2025, recovered two locally made double-barrelled guns, 9 different kinds of mobile phones, four power banks, and a screwdriver from a tricycle abandoned by its fleeing driver and two passengers at First Marine Quarters, Warri.
The tricycle’s reckless drive against traffic along Arubi Street, off Deco Road, Warri, attracted the chase of the police on surveillance patrol. The police, under the supervision of CSP Josephine Ekebuike, followed up as the tricycle made a detour to Marine Quarters, where its driver and passengers abruptly abandoned it and fled through the adjoining streets.
The statement by the Police PRO, SP Bright Dafe, said “the entire area has since been cordoned off, with intensified stop-and-search operations ongoing to track down the fleeing suspects”.
The Delta State Police PRO added that “the Commissioner of Police, CP Abaniwonda Olufemi, calls on residents to remain security-conscious and to continue supporting the Police by providing timely and credible information, assuring that all reports will be treated with the utmost confidentiality”.
