Officers of the Safer Highways unit of the Lagos State Police Command have arrested one Bamidele Taiwo, ‘m’, 30 years old for illegal possession of a firearm.
The suspect was arrested during a routine stop-and-search at an entry point between Lagos and Ogun states in the Alagbado area of Lagos State.
The Police Public Relations Officer, Lagos State Command, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, on Wednesday, May 11, 2022, said two other suspects who were with Bamidele on the same motorcycle took to their heels immediately after the police discovered the Chinese-made pistol in their bag.
According to Hundeyin, while efforts are on to arrest the fleeing suspects, Bamidele and the exhibit have been transferred to the State Headquarters for further investigations.
