The clash which led to the death of the innocent bystander was also reported to have inflicted serious gunshot injury on another policeman at the scene of the happening.
Sources present during the commotion reported that the incident which happened in Dutse, the capital of Jigawa State, started after an FRSC operational van was set ablaze by NURTW hoodlums after the officials had impounded some of their vehicles for failure to install speed limiters.
The eye witness said: “As soon as the Civil Defence officers arrived at the scene, they began beating everybody around. One of them started shooting despite the fact that the police asked him not to. He shot dead of the bystanders and a police sergeant.”
