A 200-level computer science student of Caleb University, Bamidele Moshood, has been arrested by the Lagos State Police Command for allegedly attempting to snatch an Uber car.

The 17-year-old suspect allegedly committed the crime at Owode-Onirin.

Moshood said he bought a toy gun at a supermarket at Surulere with the intent of using it to scare unsuspecting victims and dispose them of their car and use the proceeds of the sale to pay his school fees.

“I ordered Uber in front of Shoprite in Surulere, he billed me 4,500 from Shoprite down to Agric in Ikorodu.

“When we got to Owode- Onirin, I told him to stop that I want to urinate, he stopped but I told him to move that I’m not peeing again, when he moved, I just held him and ordered him to stop the car, he became scared and lost control; so the car somersaulted thrice.

“When the car somersaulted, I thought the car might explode so I came down immediately and some touts held us and handed us over to the police.

“I committed the act because I wanted to pay my school fees (N220,000) for this semester. My father refused to pay because he found out that I was smoking hemp,” Moshood said..
