The Ondo State Police Command has arrested two suspected armed robbery gang members during a routine stop-and-search operation in the Oba-ile axis of Akure North Local Government Area.
The suspects, identified as Simeon George and Moses Daniel, were apprehended by police operatives working in collaboration with the local vigilante group in the area.
According to a statement on Friday by the commandâs spokesperson, DSP Jimoh Abayomi, the officers recovered a âtoy gun and a headlampâ concealed in the suspectsâ bag during the search.
He stated that preliminary investigations showed the suspects could not provide a satisfactory explanation for the items found in their possession, raising suspicion about their intentions.
âThe suspects have since been taken into custody, while the recovered items have been secured as exhibits. The case has been transferred to the appropriate investigative unit for further examination to determine whether they are linked to any criminal activities,â Abayomi said.
He added that the suspects would be charged in court upon the conclusion of investigations.
Meanwhile, the Commissioner of Police, CP Adebowale Lawal, has reaffirmed the commandâs commitment to proactive policing through patrols, intelligence gathering, and stop-and-search operations aimed at ensuring public safety.
Lawal also commended the Inspector-General of Police, Olatunji Rilwan Disu, for his support and leadership, noting that it has boosted the morale and operational effectiveness of officers in the state.
The police boss urged members of the public to continue providing timely and credible information to aid efforts in combating crime.
