Responding swiftly, the police chased the criminals out of town. The suspect’s reign of terror came to an end when he resisted arrest and opened fire on the police, resulting in his death. One other member of his gang also opened fire on the police team, leading to an exchange of gunfire.” Iringe-Koko said two other cult leaders, Danger-boy and 2-Man, who frequently collaborated with Oderereke, managed to escape
