Stray bullet kills 32-year-old during police raid in Lagos

Published on April 05, 2025 at 02:05 PM

A 32-year-old man, Zeyanu Muhammed, has been killed by a stray bullet during a police operation in Gengere area of Ketu, Lagos State.

According to a police source, the incident occurred around 3:50 p.m. on Thursday when a tactical unit from the Area ‘H’ Command in Ogudu, led by ASP Friday Babep, stormed the area in a bid to apprehend suspected armed robbers.

The operation reportedly met stiff resistance from local hoodlums, who allegedly assisted the suspects in evading arrest.

Amid the chaos, a gunshot was discharged, and a stray bullet hit Muhammed in the shoulder, killing him instantly.

His remains have since been evacuated and deposited in a public morgue for autopsy. In the aftermath of the incident, patrol teams were swiftly deployed to the area to restore calm, while the officers involved in the operation have been detained as part of an ongoing internal investigation.

The Lagos State Police Command says efforts are underway to reach out to the victim’s family and the Hausa community in the area to prevent further unrest. A manhunt has also been launched to arrest the individuals who obstructed the police operation.
