Some hoodlums reportedly burnt down the Umuchu Police Station in Aguata local government area of Anambra State in the early hours of Sunday.

The police station was recently renovated by a group in the area after it was razed down during the 2020 #ENDSARS protest in the state.

Residents told journalists that the criminals stormed the facility on motorcycles at about 3:00 a.m. and set fire to the building.

However, no casualty was recorded in the incident.

Anambra and other states in the South-East have been under siege from criminals for about two years with many people killed and properties worth hundreds of millions of Naira destroyed during the period.
