Yomi Shogunle Says Man Allegedly Shot By SARS Merely Suffered An Asthma Attack

Assistant Commissioner of Police, Abayomi Shogunle has reacted to the viral video which purportedly showed a man being shot by SARS operatives because he was wrongly labeled a fraudster in Chinese town, Ojota, Lagos.

Yomi Shogunle claimed the man was suffering an asthma attack, rather than a gun shot as we were led to believe. The ACP took to Twitter to write,

‘man on ground in a viral video “SARS operatives shoot man wrongly labeled a fraudster in Chinese town, Ojota, Lagos.” is not dead, he is alive and was never shot at. He is asthmatic, had an asthma attack during contact with a police patrol team (not SARS) & was revived. He is now in stable condition. The 2 officers involved have been identified (attached to Area Commander Ogudu & not SARS Operative). Investigation ongoing #PCRRU201853 to determine if any form of excessive force triggered the asthma attack. Witnesses should pls contact DPO Ogudu.’
