Insecurity : Police Arrests 63 Hoodlums In Lagos , Recovers Weapons


 

The Lagos State Taskforce has arrested 63 miscreants and recovered weapons in an early morning raid in different parts of Oshodi, Lagos on Monday.

The early morning raid lasted for over three hours at Bolade Junction, Mosafejo, Oshodi Bridge, Oshodi Under Bridge, Brown Street, Railway Track and the BRT Corridors.

The raid was carried out in places where miscreants were reported to have to have engaged in different forms of nefarious activities that had made residents and commuters restive.

The operation was led by the Chairman of the Agency, CSP Shola Jejeloye.

Jejeloye described the activities of some of the suspected hoodlums arrested as worrisome due to the nature of harmful weapons and substances suspected to be cannibis recovered from them during the raid.

“We recovered harmful weapons and suspected hard drugs from these suspected miscreants during the raid across Bolade Junction, Mosafejo, Oshodi Bridge, Oshodi Under Bridge, Brown Street, Railway Track and the BRT Corridors. One of the suspects even injured one of our officers while being arrested in an attempt to escape but he was apprehended before he took to his heels,” he said.

He vowed that there would be no room for any criminal activities this year, and that criminals should rather tow the line of best practices or relocate out of the State
