A 27-year-old man, Jamiu Adeyanju, has been arrested by the Oyo State Police Command for snatching a Toyota Camry from his neighbour who gave him a free ride from Lagos to Ibadan, Oyo State, at gunpoint.
The command’s spokesman, Adewale Osifeso, who paraded the suspect, said that Adeyanju asked his neighbour, Adewole Tobi, to offer him a free ride to the toll gate area in Ibadan from Lagos, but that when they got to a desolate spot before Ibadan, the suspect brought out a gun and ordered Adewole Tobi park.
