Armed robbers attacked two banks in Iree, Osun state, killing at least one person.

The attack began at about 3:50 pm on Thursday, August 5.

Though the banks are situated close to a police station, the robbers are said to have operated undisturbed, carting money and valuables from the bank before fleeing.

They shot sporadically into the air while escaping through Iree-Ada road.
