Upon investigation, it was discovered that the deceased was allegedly a notorious individual known for serial burglary and stealing in Ikokwu and its environs.
Preliminary findings suggest that the individual may have been lynched by angry mob at the scene while attempting to commit a crime, and his remains were subsequently dumped on the road, where it was struck by a fast-moving vehicle, resulting in significant bodily damage.
Fortunately, all vital organs were found intact. The corpse has been evacuated, and a thorough investigation is currently underway to determine the circumstances surrounding this incident.
We urge anyone with useful information regarding this incident to come forward and assist our investigation.
The Rivers State Police Command remains committed to maintaining law and order in our community and ensuring justice is served.
