Days after the shootings that saw 40 persons killed in a church in Owo, six persons have been shot dead by suspected bandits in Sabo area of Ondo state.
It was gathered that the gunmen were on motorcycles when they carried out the attack.
Another source said the gunmen also robbed some residents of the area before they left the scene.
The Police Public Relations Officer of the state, Mrs Funmilayo Odunlami, confirmed the incident.
She, however, said it was a robbery case, adding that men of the command were already on the trail of the perpetrators.
