A 36-year-old car snatcher, Dayo Jimoh has been arrested by operatives of the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) in Lagos after he and two others, who are currently at large, hijacked two vehicles at gunpoint.

Spokesman of the Lagos State Police Command, Benjamin Hundeyin stated this in a statement he issued on Tuesday.

The statement which was posted on the Twitter handle of the Lagos State Police Command, reads, “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.

“Dayo was arrested at about 0230hrs on Saturday, March 11, 2023, shortly after his gang snatched a 2003 Toyota Corolla with registration number BDG-946-GZ.

“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 the 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.

“Meanwhile, Commander RRS, CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi has charged his men to intensify efforts to arrest the two fleeing suspects.”
