The operatives also recovered a minibus, two carts, and bridge railings.
A statement issued by the Spokesman of the state police command, Benjamin Hundeyin said the vandals were arrested at about 0245hrs on Saturday during RRS operatives’ routine patrol of the area.
The statement reads, “The suspects: Faruk Abubakar aged 32, Yusuph Balogun aged 36 and Timothy Dauda aged 49 fled and abandoned a Suzuki mini bus popularly called Korope with registration number BDG 315 YA upon sighting the police.
“Also left behind by the suspected vandals were two carts, bars of aluminum railings suspected to have been cut from the Third Mainland Bridge, a hammer, and a hand saw.
“Their arrest comes on the heels of other recent and similar arrests of vandals made by the CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi-led RRS operatives.”
The spokesman said the suspects have since been charged in court.
