Lagos police confirmed visible bite marks on a security guard allegedly mauled to death by dogs in a Lagos estate. Responding to public doubts, spokesperson Benjamin Hundeyin reported blood-stained injuries, addressing speculation about alternative causes of death. The investigation into the circumstances surrounding the tragedy remains ongoing.
The Lagos State Police Command has confirmed that a security guard allegedly mauled by dogs on a Lagos estate displayed clear bite marks on his body. According to Benjamin Hundeyin, the police spokesperson, the incident occurred on November 4. Questions arose after some Nigerians doubted the initial reports, citing the absence of visible blood stains or torn clothing in videos shared from the scene. These speculations led some to believe that the guard might have been the victim of a hit-and-run rather than a dog attack.
In response, Hundeyin clarified on social media that the guard’s body showed blood-stained bite marks from head to toe, indicating a serious attack by the dogs involved. The police are actively investigating the circumstances of this tragic incident, aiming to clarify the exact cause of death. Meanwhile, both residents of the estate and the general public await more details from the ongoing inquiry.
