In the Paso village market in the Gwagwalada Area Council of the FCT, a man accused of stealing a motorbike was lynched on Saturday.Israel Musa, a witness, reported that the event took place at about 9 o'clock at night when a man named Kabiru parked his motorbike and walked inside to retrieve something.According to him, "the motorcycle thief was trailing the owner of the motorcycle right from the University Abuja Teaching Hospital's gate until he arrived in Paso and parked his motorcycle to rush into his house to pick something.""The suspect was unfortunate because two neighbours watching TV in front of their homes spotted him trying to steal the bike and called the police. He got off the motorbike and ran, but people chased him down and attacked him with rocks and logs until he collapsed.
