It was during this stop that a lone gunman approached him and asked “who you looking for?”.
As the victim was about to answer, the suspect whipped out a handgun from the waist of his pants, pointed same at him and ordered him to come off the motorcycle. He complied.
The suspect then rode off with the motorcycle in the direction of the Railway Embankment. As such, a Police report was made and an investigation was launched.
The Police reportedly made checks for the suspect but he was not located. Several persons in the area were questioned but no substantial information was received.
