Two Policemen attached to the dragon outfits have been shot dead by suspected gunmen Sunday evening.

Sources said the policemen were attacked at the popular busy Oleh/Ozoro roundabout, in Isoko North Local Government Area of Delta State, while their patrol van was set ablaze.

It was however not confirmed if their AK-47 rifles were carted away by the suspected gunmen.

Few hours later another patrol van was at the scene of the incident to pick up bodies of the deceased officers.

The Sunday attack is coming barely a week after a police inspector, Jude Ukpaka, attached to the dragon 19 squad was killed by suspected gunmen along the Ogor-Evwreni axis of the East West road in Ughelli North Local Government Area of the State.

Meanwhile the Delta state police command has not reacted to the unfortunate incident.
