Warri — Two suspected armed robbers, were yesterday, set ablaze by irate youths in Adesa quarters, Ughonton community, Okpe Local Government Area of Delta state, while three others escaped into the bush and nearby river. The two suspected armed robbers met their waterloo when they tried to rob one of their unsuspected victims, who resisted them and raised alarm that alerted members of the community, who chased and caught two of them. Recovered from the armed robbers were one cut to size locally made pistol and a laptop, which was snatched from one of their victims. According to a community leader, Mr. Chris Akirinja, the group of five armed robbers had been terrorising the Ughoton and Jeddo communities for the past six months, robbing and maiming their victims during their operations. Akirinja said the community had to set up a vigilante group to curtail the incessant armed robbery cases in the community, which has been going on for the past five months. He said it was the effort of the vigilante group, which has been working round the clock that made it possible for the two armed robbers to be caught while three others escaped into the river. Eyewitness told Vanguard that the two armed robbers who were burnt were from their neighbouring community, while the others, who escaped were suspected to be from the community since they were familiar with the terrain.
