Road Side Mechanical Shot By A Police Officer

A police officer from the Okene division
in Kogi state allegedly shot a man on his
way to his motor mechanics workshop in
the early hours of today Monday July
27th.
According to eye-witnesses, the victim
was on his way to work when the
policeman called him but he refused
to stop. The policeman allegedly then
fired three shots at him, hitting in the
leg and other parts. The police officer
later said the mechanic had attempted
to take his rifle from him but
witnesses said this wasn’t true as the
man was a little far from the police
when he was shot.
The victim (pictured below) is
reportedly in critical condition at the
Specialist Hospital in Lokoja.
