Tragedy as 3 Die on Saturday Monrning in Auto Crash
8:27 AM
A RED Honda car (Registration Number, CB 544 AGL) crashed along the Murtala Muhammed International Airport Road, in the early hours of Saturday, killing all three inside the car. According to an eyewitness, the young men, apparently drunk, were returning from a club when the driver lost control.
The car veered off the road, breaking through concrete barriers and crashing into the fence of a branch of the Zenith Bank Plc. The incident, according to a security guard, occurred at around 2am.
Policemen, who reportedly rushed to the scene, have deposited the bodies at a morgue. As at 7am Saturday, sympathisers were seen milling around the vehicle and starring at grey particles suspected to be the victims’ brains scattered all over the place.
A towing van was seen at the scene, and at least one Lagos State Waste Management Agency (LAWMA) official, as effort was being made to move the vehicle away.
A police officer said it was obvious that the victims were drunk, especially as a young man, who allegedly was at the club with them, narrated how he escaped death by the whiskers.
According to the account, the victims, who could not wait for their colleague who slept off at the club, had slipped a N1000 bill into his pocket to enable him find his way home.
The accounts could not be verified as at press time.
