KWARA: Gunmen steal cash in Ilorin daylight robbery, driver shot

A four-man armed robbery gang on Friday unleashed terror in Ilorin, Kwara State, shooting a motorist and making away with an undisclosed sum of cash believed to be packed in several cartons.

The robbery, which occurred directly opposite the Kwara State Correspondents’ Chapel office, caused panic as the masked assailants fired multiple shots before fleeing in an ash-coloured Toyota Corolla with a faded number plate.

Eyewitnesses said the robbers appeared to have trailed their victim, driving a grey Toyota Sienna marked AA 693 GT, before opening fire.
