A gang of unknown gunmen killed a police sergeant before abducting Michael Cremza, a German engineeer, who worked with Dantata and Sawoe Company in the state.
The disheartening incident happened along Sabon Titi Madobi Road, Kano, on Monday morning.
According to The Cable, the kidnappers were said to have opened fire on a vehicle conveying Cremza on his way to a construction site.
Confirming the incident, the Kano state police spokesman, Musa Majia, said the command has deployed a “team of operatives” to study the situation. He said: “The police commissioner Rabiu Yusuf has since deployed a powerful team of operatives and detectives to cordon the axis with a view to arresting the culprits and rescue the victim. Manhunt of the abductors is ongoing.”
