Amotekun Arrests 2 Underaged Boys For Stealing Food In Osun

 

Two underged boys have been arrested by operatives of Amotekun Corps in Osun State for allegedly breaking into a shop and stole food items and some money.

Osun State Amotekun Commander, Retired Brig.-Gen. Bashir Adewinmbi, made this known to newsmen on Tuesday.

He said the boys, who are 13 and 11 years respectively, gained access into a shop at Asubiaro, Osogbo in the early hours of Saturday and stole recharge cards, noodles, beverages and some cash.

He said the suspects were later arrested in the day, at about 6:24 pm, in an uncompleted building, after the incident was reported to Amotekun Osogbo Command by the shop owner.

“The duo were arrested at their hideout after our operatives received intelligence about their location.

“The suspects were caught with some of the stolen items still in their possession and during interrogation, they confessed to perpetrating the act,” Adewinmbi said.
