The Lagos State Police Command has apprehended three individuals believed to be part of a one-chance robbery gang, as revealed in a statement posted on the command’s X handle on Saturday.

The statement read, “Operatives of #LagosPoliceNG, responding to a distress call about a one-chance incident, embarked on a rescue operation and rescued one Abisola Taiwo ‘f’.
