the suspect had been arrested and that the case has been transferred to the State Criminal Investigation Department, Akure.
“The suspect will definitely face the law and justice will prevail in the case”, the police spokesman said.
The incident, which happened on the Ayeka/Igbokoda Expressway in Okitipupa, Okitipupa Local Government Area of Ondo State, has left residents in shock and disbelief.
