A young Nigerian man was left distraught after his newly purchased luxury car, a GLK Benz, which he claimed he bought for 27 million naira, was severely damaged following a dramatic encounter with police officers in Benin, Nigeria.
According to reports, the incident began when the policemen allegedly spotted the young man driving the luxury vehicle. Suspecting him of wrongdoing, they launched a high-speed chase in an attempt to arrest him. The pursuit took a dangerous turn as the young man, while trying to evade the officers, lost control of the car and collided with another vehicle. The crash left his prized Benz severely damaged, alongside the other vehicle.
Visibly heartbroken, the young man repeatedly cried out, claiming, “I did nothing to them. They just started chasing me for no reason!” Eyewitnesses at the scene corroborated his claim, stating that the officers appeared to be acting without provocation.
As a crowd gathered around the wreckage, the police officers were seen attempting to explain their actions to the growing number of onlookers, who angrily accused them of recklessness and unnecessary aggression.
