The Police Public Relations Officer for Lagos State Police Command, Benjamin Hundeyin, said peace had been restored to the area.
He warned against jungle justice, saying the police would treat perpetrators of the act as criminals if they were caught.
He said, “The police arrived at the scene on time and rescued the motorcycle rider from being lynched.
“The Police immediately took the rider to the hospital for treatment and evacuated the pedestrian. Before the Police arrived back at the scene, a mob was already burning the motorcycles left behind by the fleeing riders.
“The Lagos State Police Command condemns jungle justice in very strong terms. Anyone found engaging in such would be dealt with in accordance with the law.”
