Two robbers that robbed a woman who owns a boutique in the Trans-Amadi area of Portharcourt, the Rivers state capital, and attempted to escape with their loot, met their waterloo as they were caught by angry mob.
According to an eye witness “I was on my way to Wema Bank on trans amadi road Port harcourt around 11am today. Suddenly, i spotted a crowd gathered in front of a shop close to Mothercat bus stop.
In their mist were two guys on the ground who appeared pummeled. I gathered that they were thieves that just robbed a female boutique owner in her shop along the same trans amadi road. They escaped with their loot (in the that plastic bag beside the thief lying on the ground) with their bike but were caught by some mobile police men. One man amongst the crowd identified one of the thieves (the one sitting on the ground) as a notorious criminal who operates around rumuokoro axis.
On interrogation, they said they were poor and jobless.”
