Angry youth had taken the officers to the palace of the traditional ruler in the area after a female trader was killed by a bullet reportedly fired by the security operatives who were chasing some suspected internet fraudsters, better known as “Yahoo boys”.
A eyewitness told newsmen that the trader was pronounced d**d at the hospital she was taken to after the incident.
The operatives reportedly fled after learning of the incident but the youth in the community held two of them.
Some of the policemen who escaped later returned with soldiers.
As the youth, who lit bonfires in front of the palace where the officers were being detained, sighted them, they started pelting the security operatives with stones and bottles but they fired into the air to disperse the aggrieved youth.
The soldiers and some policemen have moved into the palace of the traditional ruler.
