A suspected armed robber who operates wearing Army uniform
was yesterday arrested by policemen attached to Bariga Division of the Lagos
State Police Command.
Police stormed the robbers’ hideout which doubles as one of
the suspects’ apartments, according to the Lagos State Police Public Relations
Officer, Ngozi Braide, and recovered a pair of Army uniform, one locally made
double barrel pistol with two live cartridges, a machete and Police baton.
When the operatives stormed the hideout located on Oluwa
Street, two persons suspected to be members of the gang fled, abandoning the
owner of the apartment whom she identified simply as Ahmed.
The suspect, as gathered, had been transferred to the State
Criminal Investigations Department, Yaba, where investigation aimed at
ascertaining how he came about the Army uniform and Police baton was on-going.
