Mentally Unstable Man allegedly Destroys ATM With Hammer, Customers Pick race

A unidentified mentally precarious young fellow supposedly attacked the First Bank Branch at Ganaja intersection in Kabba, Okene street zone of Lokoja on Tuesday, damaging two Automated Teller Machines (ATMs).

The maniac was said to have held a sledge, which he utilized over and over to hit the machine, attempting to crush it.

The scene, which apparently tossed ATM clients into perplexity and kept them on their heels scuttling for safety, happened at around 9 a.m after the suspect was mistaken for a thief on a mission to rob clients at the ATM.

As per reports, the assault professedly rendered two bank machines futile, leaving clients exasperated. The state Police Public Relation Officer, Collins Sola Adebayo, who confirmed the incident, said the suspect was shot on his leg.
