Reports from Kaduna disclosed that one person was shot dead while many travellers were abducted when gunmen blocked the Kaduna-Zaria highway in the state.
The incident happened around Mawai village, also known as Gonar Magajin Gari, on Monday night.
A source identified the victim killed as one Alhaji Sani Dogara and was heading for Kaduna from Zaria.
Reports also disclosed how the bandits operated ‘unchallenged’ for almost three hours.
However, an eyewitness said that the bandits came in vehicles and stationed them around Tudun Gaude village.
He added that the vehicles were used to evacuate their captives to an unknown destination.
