Operatives of the Rapid Response Squad have arrested one 36-year-old man, Dayo Jimoh, in Lagos after he and two others (still at large) hijacked two vehicles at gunpoint.

The operatives made this known via a statement issued on their Twitter account on Tuesday

The statement which was signed by the police public relations officer, Benjamin Hundeyin read, “Operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) have arrested one Dayo Jimoh ‘m’ aged 36 along Ojodu-Berger Road, Lagos after he and two others (still at large) hijacked two vehicles at gunpoint.

The suspects arrived in a 2005 Toyota Camry with registration number KRD-958-HS which they earlier snatched at gunpoint at Oworo, while disguising as passengers.

“While investigation is ongoing, the owners of the vehicles which were recovered, are hereby urged to come forward with proof of ownership to claim their vehicles.
