The Lagos State Police Command has arrested three suspects – Taiwo Olayinka (30), Azeez Sodiq (33), and Saheed Moonstruck (23) – for attempting to rob a car dealer.
This was made known by the Command’s Public Relations Officer, SP Benjamin Hundeyin, in response to a video shared on X.com by user who tweets anonymously as X_DailyTrends on Wednesday.
The video, captioned “These boys tried to kidnap a car dealer today at Ebute Igbogbo Road, Ikorodu,” prompted Hundeyin to confirm the arrest of the three suspects, who have been in custody since the incident occurred.
Hundeyin stated that efforts are underway to apprehend the two remaining suspects who escaped and that investigations have commenced.
Reacting to the video, Hundeyin wrote, “Three suspects, Taiwo Olayinka 30, Azeez Sodiq 33 and Saheed Moonstruck 23, have been in our custody since yesterday, shortly after the incident, and efforts are on to arrest the remaining two suspects that escaped. Meanwhile, investigation has commenced.
Hundeyin clarified that the arrested individuals are suspected thieves or kidnappers, and the investigation will determine the exact nature of their crimes.
“The three arrested are the suspected thieves or kidnappers (investigation would tell which).”
