Armed gunmen this evening stormed a
branch of First City Monument Bank
(FCMB) at Waterfront Plaza, Admiralty
Way Lekki Phase 1 Lagos.
The gunmen who arrived via speedboat
started shooting sporadically and ended up
killing 3 policemen and a fish seller.
According to a witness;
“It was a well-coordinated attack, the robbers arrived
in military camouflage and immediately distributed
themselves, three of them manning each of the four
exits of the bank. As I am talking to you now, the
bodies of the three policemen that were killed are still
on the ground.”
He added that after forcing their way into
the banking hall, the robbers immediately
announced their intention, and everyone
cooperated with them.
“Nobody was killed inside the bank because once they
announced that they were robbers, everyone, including
bank staff, cooperated. “So it was a successful
operation for them, because they made away with a lot
of money. They even hacked into the ATMs and carted
away the money stuffed there.”
