Addressing a news conference on Wednesday, the State Police Commissioner, Musa Daura said the occupants of the vehicle who are now at large, were badly injured during a gun duel with the police.

According to the commissioner, the vehicle was arrested yesterday at about 9:30am following a tip-off from some members of the public and various IEDs were recovered from the vehicle.
