A suspected armed robber named Emmanuel who has been terrorising the residents of Ayede-Ogbese in Akure North Local Government Area of Ondo State has been mobbed to death.
It was
gathered that the suspect who had been convicted earlier had been on the watch
list of residents of the town after he was released, returned and continued his
nefarious activities.
However, the
suspect met his waterloo on Sunday when he was trying to escape with four
motorcycles he had snatched from their owners but the truck being used to
convey them broke down.
He was caught
and the residents mobbed him, beating him up mercilessly.
The
spokesperson of Ondo State Police Command, DSP Tee-Leo Ikoro confirmed the
incident to Channels Television on Monday via a telephone conversation, noting
that the suspect had been badly injured before the police arrived at the scene.
According to
Ikoro, the suspect died before getting to the hospital.
Ikoro frowned
at the jungle justice done against the suspect, adding that the police is
presently investigating the incident.
