Some officers of police patrol team in Lagos State have rescued two children who were nearly kidnapped by “one chance vehicle” criminals in the state.
The state Police Command disclosed, via its official Twitter handle on Tuesday, that the two children unknowingly got into the “one chance vehicle” on their way to a tutorial lesson and were being taken to a bushy area.
The children, however, escaped from the criminals, after a passerby saw them and raised the alarm.
