An unidentified young man who was declared insane stormed a first generation bank located along Ganaja road, in Lokoja, the Kogi State capital, damaging two Automated Teller Machines (ATMs).
The incident which happened during the early hours of Tuesday took many of the bank customers by surprise as the man was mistaken for a robbery suspect out on a mission to rob the ATM. The attack by the ‘madman’ rendered the two ATM machines useless and the customers frustrated.
The branch manager, Mr. Emmanuel declined speaking with the press on the matter, saying he is not in position to comment on such issues. An eyewitness said that the incident happened at about 9.30am when a young man stormed the bank with a wooden hammer, in an effort to access in the ATMs.
Confirming the incident, the Police Public Relations Officer, Collins ‘Sola Adebayor, an Assistant Superintendent of Police (ASP), said the unidentified suspect was shot on the leg.
He promised to make available details of the incidence as soon as investigation is concluded. For more scintillating and juicy stories, follow the official Naijapals accounts On Twitter - @Naijapals and Facebook - www.facebook.com/naijapals
