A policeman who was hired to provide security at a birthday party in Lagos, got himself drunk and shot two guests on Sunday.
The killing suddenly brought the birthday party held at La Silva Bar in Gowon Estate, Egbeda, Lagos to an end as those in attendance fled for fear of arrest.
Realising that he has killed people, the cop escaped immediately from the scene.
The spokesman of the police in the state, Benjamin Hundeyin, said the command was on the trail of the policeman.
He said, “I can confirm there was a shooting at the bar on Sunday night and two persons were killed. We are investigating the circumstances that led to the shooting. I can assure you that those responsible will not go free. They will face the music. The commissioner of Police Lagos State, CP Abiodun Alabi, has zero-tolerance for such behaviour and has already given marching orders to the DPO to fish out the culprits.”
It was also gathered that the celebrant identified as Ifeanyi alias Asiwaju of Computer Village, invited the policeman to provide security at the party.
