One policeman, Brigadier Leo Nardo Latupapua was killed by the attacker.[3] After the attacker killed Leo, the other two police officers tried to flee & locked themselves in another room asking for help using their phones.[3] The attacker refused to surrender and was shot dead by the police that arrived in the area.
