The other suspects are two boys who are now cooling off their heels at the Delta Police Command.

The female suspect was tracked down by the police operatives at the weekend after she allegedly stabbed and inflicted injuries on a yet-to-be-identified woman.
The Delta State Commissioner of Police, CP Mohammed Hafiz Inuwa, confirmed the report in a chat with journalists in Warri.
“These were armed robbers who were using a woman. It’s not a question of a notorious armed robber. It’s a gang using knife, stab people and rob them.
“Three of them were arrested. One out of them is a very young girl,” CP Inuwa said.
He further explained that the suspect’s duty “was to sort of deceive passengers, engage them in a discussion before they got carried away and rob them. They’ve been arrested and they’re in our custody.”
