Gunmen on a motorcycle killed three people on Monday when they opened fire on a group of Muslim worshipers in the northern Nigerian city of Kano, the latest such attack in the region, police said.
Three gunmen fired into a group of people preparing for evening prayers in a business district of the city, the largest in Nigeria’s mainly Muslim north, police spokesman Magaji Majia told AFP.
“The three gunmen came on a motorcycle around 6:00 pm and opened fire on a group of people getting ready for the evening prayers at a popular tea-selling spot opposite the zoo,” Majia said.
One person was also injured in the attack.
