The report discloses that the gang had on July 17, 2020, blocked the Alapako end of Lagos-Ibadan expressway and forcefully stopped a Mazda commercial bus with two occupants, subsequently dispossessing them of the sum of about N545,000 and an itel phone.

The victims had been physically assaulted with cutlasses by the teenagers.

Three cutlasses and wood crafted to look like a gun were recovered from the suspects.
