Bafoussam: Man killed during armed home invasion

An armed robbery in the Tamdja neighborhood of Bafoussam resulted in the death of Maurice Kenmogne during a targeted attack on his home. The incident occurred around 1:00 AM near the Place des Fêtes.

According to reports, the assailants began by firing shots at the residence and forcing entry through the main door. While two women managed to escape through a rear exit, Kenmogne was confronted by the armed individuals and shot in the chest.

Following the killing, the attackers took the children inside the house hostage and demanded a specific sum of money. After the family provided the funds, the assailants released the children and fled the scene.
