The Delta Police Command has said that a mob, comprising about 200 people, attacked Ashaka Police Station in Ndokwa East Local Government Area on Wednesday.
.
The Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), Mr Lucky Uyabeme, made this known to reporters in Asaba on Thursday.
.
He said the attack may have been sparked off by the death of a boy who jumped into a river and drowned when the police raided a joint where some people reportedly smoke Indian hemp.
.
Uyabeme said that the situation was brought under control by the joint action of the police and the military from the Agip Oil Company.
.
He added that one Emeka Ozegbe and other key suspects of the attack had been arrested.
