Police in Kaduna have confirmed attack on a train coming from Abuja on Monday night.
Kaduna police spokesman Mohammed Jalige told newsmen by telephone that the attack was not carried out by gunmen.
He said that despite the attack the train arrived Kaduna.
Mr Jalige said some miscreants threw stones at the moving train around Rijana village, close to Kaduna.
“It was not a bullet or bow and arrow, what they threw are not aggressive weapons. It was not an attack, the train was moving. Our men in Rijana are on top of the situation,” he added.
The spokesman said investigation would be conducted on the attack.
“So far no suspect has been arrested but our men have been deployed in the area to trail the suspects,” he said.
Igbere TV, however, learnt that one passenger, a female, was injured in the attack.
Many commuters have resorted to trains to avert the risk of being kidnapped or attacked by robbers on the Abuja-Kaduna highway.
