According to a confirmed source, the suspect, who vanished after the incident, was apprehended by a Department of State Service (DSS) operative in the Odogbolu area of Ogun state.
Adekunle Ajisebutu, the Lagos State Police Public Relations Officer, told reporters that the police also arrested two people connected to the driver.
