SECURITY REPORTERS.com gathered that the attackers in their numbers invaded the settlement which is located at the outskirt of Anka town.
 
Police sources disclosed  that on 2nd  June, 2021 at about 1700hrs, Police tactical  operatives deployed to Anka LGA were alerted that, armed bandits in their hundreds stormed a Fulani settlement located at the outskirt of Anka with intent to attack and rustle cows belonging to the Fulani settlers.
 
Acting promptly, a combined police team in collaboration with the military mobilized to the scene where they engaged the hoodlums in a gun duel. As a result, they scampered to the forest and escaped with possible gun shot wounds.
