Officers of the Lagos Rapid Response Squad (RRS) on Friday apprehended an 18-year-old suspect for allegedly stealing LED road stud lights from the newly renovated Third Mainland Bridge.
Upon arrest, the suspect, Mubarak Abdullahi, a resident of Makoko, was found with ten LED road stud lights, which are installed to enhance road visibility.
Abdullahi was reportedly caught in the act by RRS operatives patrolling the bridge.
The arrest was part of heightened security measures implemented by CSP Olayinka Egbeyemi, Commander of the Rapid Response Squad.
In recent weeks, bike riders have been deployed on 24-hour patrols to monitor traffic and protect infrastructure on the bridge.
CSP Egbeyemi has emphasised the importance of safeguarding public property and ensuring the safety of road users through vigilant policing efforts.
