A member of a neighbourhood watch,
Ogundare Ekundayo, has shot himself dead while attempting to scare away
thieves from the Ebute-Meta area of Lagos State.
PUNCH Metro learnt that the deceased was among a three-man team guarding Osholanke Street, Ebute Meta.
There were, however, two of them on duty on the fateful day.
It was gathered that around 4am, when
they were expected to round off work, Ekundayo reportedly shot into the
air to scare away lurking thieves as was the guards’ custom.
As he fired a shot, the bullet hit an object which ricocheted it towards him.
The bullet was said to have struck him in the head.
His duty colleague, Fatai Raimi, reportedly ran to the spot upon hearing the shot, and discovered the victim dead.
