Ondo man fights robber attempting to rape wife, grabs gun



On Wednesday, the Ondo State Police Command reported that it had detained 14 suspected criminals across the state.

Ojo Rotimi, Tosin Omoniyi, Jimoh Dele, Uwanfor Destiny, Babajide Moses, Tope Gbenga, John Simeon, Akinniranye Blessing, Jude Stephen, and Iranlowo Ayomide were a few of the suspects named.

Omoniyi is accused of robbing a woman's family of goods in their home at the Idanre hamlet in the state's Idanre Local Government Area before trying to rape the victim.
The guy allegedly broke into the flat through the window at around one in the morning and robbed the couple of their money and other items.

The suspect was displayed by the state police public relations officer, Mrs. Funmilayo Odunlami, who said that he will soon face charges in court.

The PPRO stated, "The accused was attempting to rape the man's wife when he (the husband) mustered the bravery to descend on the accused, catch the robber with the assistance of neighbors, and disarm him of his rifle."

Odunlami added that Mrs. Tale Akinlabi, the suspect's 55-year-old mother, had been detained for allegedly aiding him in keeping stolen property.

The defendants will shortly face charges in court, according to a police official.

When questioned, Omoniyi, who identified himself as a commercial motorcycle, claimed to work alone and to have successfully robbed numerous residents in the community.
