Robbery suspect arrested for attacking 80-year-old man in Ogun by sundaysamuel381(m) : 3:05 pm On Oct 27, 2023 |
A man identified as Olamilekan Taiwo has allegedly attacked an octogenarian, Reuben Olojede, with a grinding stone, after invading the victim’s apartment in the Agbado area of Ogun State. The incident, which occurred on Tuesday, saw the suspect stealing N12,700 from the elderly man’s apartment after the attack had thrown him into unconsciousness. PUNCH Metro learnt that the victim’s son, Segun Olojede, who just returned home from work reported the incident at a nearby station after meeting his father lying in the pool of his blood. PUNCH Metro gathered that the sympathisers who flooded the scene with the victim’s son rushed the aged man to the hospital. Although the suspect’s arrest has been confirmed by the state police command, Taiwo was said to have fled the scene before the people in the area apprehended him. Our correspondent learnt that Taiwo was later arrested in the Ogba-Ayo and Ijoko areas of the state by the joint efforts of policemen and other security outfits in the state. Speaking, the state Police Public Relations Officer, Omolola Odutola, said the 80-year-old man had regained consciousness and was responding to treatment in a nearby hospital, adding that the stolen cash had also been recovered. “The suspect has been arrested and will be transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department in Abeokuta for further investigation. He will be charged with attempted murder and robbery,” Odutola stated in a WhatsApp message on Thursday. |
