Operatives of the Lagos Rapid Response Squad in collaboration with Policemen, on Sunday, foiled an attempt to hijack their patrol bike in Ikeja.
A 19-year-old suspect, Akinjobi Wahab, was arrested as four accomplices escaped.

He wrote, “Rapid Response Squad operatives in plain clothes, patrolling on a motorcycle, have arrested a robbery suspect, Akinjobi Wahab, aged 19 while trying to snatch their motorcycle.
“The machete-wielding suspect was arrested at about 4am on Acme Road, Agidingbi, Ikeja in company of four others now at large.
“This is coming on the heels of the emplacement of regular foot and vehicular patrols in the area by the Commander RRS, CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi, in response to repeated complaints that robbers operate around Agidingbi, Ikeja very early mornings.”
