A police corporal, Joseph Ebosele, has been confirmed dead at a Lagos hospital after he was hit with an iron rod by a motorcyclist, Bakare Lukman, in the Meiran area of Lagos State.
It was learnt that after seizing Lukman's bike, the team leader of the policemen handed it over to Ebosele to ride to the station.
Our correspondent learnt that a furious Lukman reportedly escaped police custody, caught up with Ebosele and attacked him with an iron rod.
Our correspondent learnt from a police source that the police recovered the suspect's cap at the scene which they used in tracing him to the motor park.
Lukman, a resident of Olajumoke Street, in Obafemi Owode Local Government area of Ogun State, told the police he had hid in the dark inside a mechanic shop from where he monitored the movement of the police patrol van.
