“Upon the report, the DPO Ifo division, CSP Adeniyi Adekunle, detailed his detectives to fish out the hoodlums,” a statement by the Command’s Spokesperson, DSP Abimbola Oyeyemi, said on Saturday.

Policemen were said to have gathered intelligence that led to the hideout of the suspects, where three were arrested, while two others ran away, DAILY POST learnt.

“Preliminary investigation revealed that the suspects are all working in the same company,” Oyeyemi said.

The Ogun State Commissioner of Police, Edward Ajogun, has ordered a manhunt for the fleeing members of the gang, adding that those arrested will be prosecuted.
