The Kaduna State Police Command says its men have arrested a suspected goat thief at Pasali Konu village, Kagarko Local Government Area.<\/p>\n

The Command\u2019s Police Public Relations Officer (PPRO), ASP Mansur Hassan, who spoke with newsmen in Kaduna on Sunday, said the suspect was taken into custody on Saturday.<\/p>\n

Hassan said the 20-year-old suspect was apprehended on November 11 at approximately 04:30pm by a vigilante and surveillance team who were on a visibility patrol in the hamlet.<\/p>\n

He said the suspect is from Kagarko LGA\u2019s Igwa village.<\/p>\n

He explained that the suspect armed himself with dangerous weapons and a facemask.<\/p>\n

Hassan said, \u201cThe suspect, who specialises in stealing goats, confessed that there were two who came to the village to steal goats.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said the other suspect fled when he saw the patrol squad and we apprehended the other one.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe other suspect who is at large ran to an unknown destination but we will trail him and arrest him,\u201d Hassan said.<\/p>\n

The police spokeswoman said the suspect would face charges in court after investigation.<\/p>\n

Hassan reaffirmed the command\u2019s resolve to eradicate all types of criminal activity from the state and made a timely and relevant information request to enable operatives take preventative action against crimes before they start.<\/p>\n
