The Lagos state police have arrested one Ifeanyi Owoh, pictured above, for attempting to steal from a businessman who was in the state on a visit. A statement from the state police command spokesperson, Chike Oti, says on Tuesday, January 22nd at about 15.30hrs, along Billings way, Oregun, Lagos, policemen who were on a motorbike on street patrol duty, sighted two men.

Then approached the men for a routine check, but rather than subject themselves to security scrutiny, they took to their heels. The police riders chased after the fleeing men and arrested one of them.
During a brief interrogation, Owoh narrated that their mission in the industrial estate was to rob a businessman who they learnt was in town for a transaction with a notable automobile company in the area.

When searched, one locally made pistol, three live cartridges and a dagger were recovered from him.
The police say efforts are on to arrest his fleeing accomplice while apprehended suspect would be charged to court soon.
