Kindly share:<\/p>\n

Unidentified gunmen have shot dead a 20-year-old man in the Okokomaiko area of the Lagos State.<\/span><\/p>\n

The deceased was on Friday, September 6, 2024, shot multiple times in his head, stomach, and leg, leading to his death.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The victim was reportedly pursued by the assailants before they caught up with him and fired multiple shots at about 9pm.<\/span><\/p>\n

Benjamin Hundeyin, spokesperson of the Lagos Police Command, confirmed the incident.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

He stated, \u201cInformation was received from concerned members of the public that at about 9 pm at Abeokuta Street, Okokomaiko, Ojo, Lagos, four unidentified gunmen were seen chasing a young man in the area. They shot him several times in the head, stomach, and leg until he died.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the gunmen fled the scene before the arrival of the policemen that raced to the crime scene on receiving the report.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cAfter committing the act, they abandoned the corpse and took to their heels while they escaped to an unknown destination. Immediately after receiving the information, the anti-crime team visited the scene,\u201d Hundeyin further said.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe deceased\u2019s body was photographed on the spot. The corpse was then evacuated and deposited at the Infectious Disease Hospital mortuary in Yaba.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cInvestigation is in progress, and efforts are underway to trace the fleeing suspects for possible arrest and prosecution. The case will be transferred for further and discreet investigation.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

He requested members of the public to volunteer information that could help in apprehending the culprits to the police.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
