Police Arrest Member Of Tricycle Robbery Gang As Suspect Reveals Modus Operandi
The Police in Delta State says its operatives have arrested a member of a tricycle robbery gang, 20-year-old Nworie Emmanuel.
Spokesman of the police command, Bright Edafe stated this in a statement issued on Wednesday and posted on the command’s Twitter handle.
Edafe said the suspect was arrested on 15th May by operatives of the “B” division Warri led by DPO SP Bolarinwa Alabi who were on visibility/confidence building patrol along Airport road.
According to him, “They sighted a tricycle with three (3) male occupants, and in their usual way, flagged down the tricycle, but the rider on sighting the police maneuvered in a bid to escape. The operatives went after them until they eventually abandoned the tricycle and took to their heels. One of the suspects, named Nworie Emmanuel ‘m’ 20yrs, was arrested and taken to the police station.”
The police spokesman further said, “During interrogation, the suspect stated that he is a member of a three-man gang of armed robbers who uses a tricycle to rob innocent people of their belongings along Airport Road Warri.
“He also confessed that they have robbed two persons on that day along the Airport road. That the phone robbed was with Abdul, one of their fleeing gang members, and that their modus operandi is to look out for their victims standing on a lonely road at night, and Abdul (currently at large) will jump down from the tricycle, use the knife to threaten their victim and rob them of their phones and other valuable.”
The police image maker further disclosed that the tricycle, the knife they use to scare their victims are in custody alongside the suspect while the effort is on to arrest the other fleeing members of the gang.
Similarly, Kanyi Daily reported that the police command has also arrested a 35-year-old lady, Priscilla Amor in possession of some illicit drugs and other items.
