Operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) in plain clothes, patrolling on a motorcycle, have arrested a robbery suspect, Akinjobi Wahab, aged 19 while trying to snatch their motorcycle.
In a statement, the police in Lagos said the machete-wielding suspect was arrested at about 4 am on Sunday on Acme Road, Agidingbi, Ikeja in company of four others now at large.
“This is coming on the heels of the emplacement of regular foot and vehicular patrols in the area by the Commander RRS, CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi, in response to repeated complaints that robbers operate around Agidingbi, Ikeja very early mornings.
“Suspect will be arraigned as soon as investigations are concluded,” the statement read.
