A survivor of the attack, farmer Barnabas Idi, said he scaled the fence of his house and crawled forabout 40 minutes to safety. Idi said that security agents were not present during the attack.

In the second attack early Saturday, suspected Boko Haram gunmen opened fire on Doron Baga, afishing village along Lake Chad.

"They opened fire from all directions, forcing residents to jump into the lake in a bid to escape, andmany drowned while others were gunned down," said Babagana Gwoni, a survivor of the attack.

The gunmen looted fish and foodstuffs before setting houses on fire, Gwoni said.

Lt. Col. Mohammed Dole, a military spokesman, confirmed the Doron Baga attack but declined togive details.

"We received report of the attack on Doron Baga, but we don't have details because the area fallsunder the operational jurisdiction of the Multinational Joint Task Force," Dole said.
