Four months ago almost shot a Nigerian guy selling phone and accessories here in Kasoa, fortunately enough there were some police men on patrol that heard the gun sound and came to arrest him that night,
It was just by luck that the bullet miss the guy, 
3days later the guy was released and the same gun was giving back to him we tried to follow up the case but the police people were not helping matter rather they end up making it a rubbish case 
Now the guy has use the same gun on them they seems to have suddenly woken up 
If they have done the right thing that day this very situation could have been avoided

According an eyewitness, who saw everything that transpired between Eric and the officers on that fateful day, when the police officer approached the suspect, who was driving the unregistered blue/black Toyota Camry vehicle in an attempt to arrest him, the police officer first slapped the suspect in the face.

The suspect, in turn, went to his car under the pretence of taking out money from the car according to the eyewitness, but brought out the gun and fired at the police officer.

In a radio interview Thursday morning, the eyewitness said the police officer then took to his heels and headed towards the grocery shop in which the eyewitness and two other persons were.

The officer, who was then bleeding profusely reportedly urged the eyewitnesses to take cover and they did so by hiding behind a refrigerator inside the grocery shop.

The suspect, according to the eyewitness entered the shop and ordered them out after which he shot again at the police officer.
