According to a statement issued by the Police Public Relations Officer for Delta State Command, DSP Bright Edafe, the suspect was apprehended while the operatives of Dragon 18 and 29 were carrying out their stop and search duties.

The team intercepted a tricycle with registration number GBB 022 UN, driven by one Isreal Sibito, who was conveying three females and one male passenger, identified as Joseph Vincent.

During the search, Vincent attempted to escape by jumping down from the tricycle and running into a nearby bush. However, he was pursued and apprehended by the operatives. A thorough search of the suspect resulted in the recovery of two locally fabricated Berretta pistols.
