A commercial bus conveying a yet-to-be-determined number of passengers to Abuja from Benin, Edo State, was intercepted by hoodlums suspected to be kidnappers on Tuesday.
The hoodlums shot sporadically into the air and reportedly whisked the passengers away to the forest.
The incident was said to have occurred along the Benin-Auchi Road.
Efforts to get the official reaction of the Edo State Police Command were not successful as of the time of filing this report.
The number of passengers involved has however not been ascertained.
