2 killed in north Nigeria city drive-by shooting
Published November 20, 2014
Police in northern Nigeria's largest city say gunmen have shot dead two people.
Kano state police spokesman Rilwanu Dutse said Friday the attack occurred Thursday evening at a major junction in the city where people buy cigarettes and play cards.
Dutse said the gunmen arrived and shot at the crowds. He said a policeman was injured in the attack.
He declined to say who they suspected but suspicion fell on the radical Islamist sect known as Boko Haram.
The sect claimed responsibility for a coordinated January assault in Kano that killed at least 185 people.
