The death toll from the tanker fire incident in Jos, Plateau State, has risen to 13; while 28 shops, eight motor vehicles, six tricycles and two motorcycles were burnt.
This is just as state Commissioner of Police, Bartholomew Onyeka, expressed dismay over the attack on security agents, who went for a rescue mission at the scene of the incident as well as the burning of a patrol vehicle belonging to the Federal Road Safety Corps, FRSC.
Meanwhile, Governor-elect, Caleb Mutfwang, commiserated with those affected by the incident.
The CP, who visited the scene of the incident today in the company of other sister-security personnel, cautioned citizens against being lawless and wondered why they were attacking those who went for rescue.
