A young burglar had a bitter taste of the conventional jungle justice as practiced in Nigeria after he was caught in the act.
The nabbed suspect
An 18-year old boy was captured stealing a laptop in a shop in the Ikorodu area of Lagos State. He was allegedly spotted by the shop owner during which he immediately bolted.
He scaled about three fences while the business owner raised a loud alarm that alerted residents at 4:00pm yesterday during which he was nabbed and beaten mercilessly.
An eye witness claimed the teenage burglar had issues standing upright without assistance after being manhandled.
