A young boy, yet to be identified, was tragically killed by a speeding construction truck at Obagun community in Osun State.
The boy was reportedly running an errand for his father to buy fuel when the truck, en route to a quarry site, fatally crushed him.
A community source revealed, “The truck driver crushed the boy to death on Saturday evening at Marvelous Junction.
He attempted to escape but was apprehended by angry youths who tried to lynch him. However, operatives of the Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) intervened and rescued him.”
Confirming the incident, the spokesperson of the NSCDC, Osun State Command, Kehinde Adeleke, said investigations are ongoing.
She explained that, “Aggrieved youths in Obaagun attempted to lynch the driver involved in the incident but our officers intervened promptly, preventing the act.
“The driver has since been handed over to the Nigeria Police. The deceased has been buried, and normalcy has returned to the area.“
