Men of the Ogun State Police Command have arrested two suspected robbers, who were escaping with a vehicle stolen in Lagos State.
The Police Public Relations Officer in Ogun State, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, disclosed this in a statement on Tuesday.
Oyeyemi said the suspects, Raymond Chukwudi and Ekene Okoro, were arrested by men of the Federal Highway Patrol at Ajebandele, a boundary between Ogun and Ondo states, while on stop-and-search.
He said the suspects were arrested on Tuesday.
Oyeyemi stated, โDuring the operation, the operatives stopped a Toyota Fortuner SUV with number plate AGL 834 GU with three occupants.
โOn interrogation, the occupants, whose countenance was suspicious, were unable to give satisfactory information about the vehicle; hence the policemen put a call through to the owner, whose phone number was seen on the particulars, for further enquiries.โSensing that the game was up, one of the occupants took to his heels, while the other two were quickly apprehended.
