To make matters worse for the young man, a commercial bus said to be coming from behind Ariaria market axis crushed him and he died instantly.
An eye witness said: “The commercial bus veered into Azikiwe Road from Asa Road in high speed and before anybody knew what was happening, some men inside the bus pushed the young man out from the bus and sped off.
“Before people around could rush to give him a helping hand, another commercial bus heading towards Ariaria market crushed him and he died instantly.”
When Vanguard visited the scene of the incident, the corpse of the young man was still lying in the middle of the road as plain cloth police men who arrived the scene were seen trying some numbers they found on his mobile phone to contact his relations.
