A 35 year Shaibu Jumah has been arrested by the police highway patrol team on the Motorway for attempted robbery.
The police said Shaibu is alleged to be part of a four man armed robbery gang that attacked a businessman around 7.30 Sunday evening when he had a flat tire on the motorway.
The police alleged, a team of highway patrol deployed on the Motorway, noticed an unregistered infiniti car about 200 metres away from the Ashaiman flyover, with the doors open and hazard lights on.
They explained, the team became suspicious and decided to investigate only to notice the suspect, 35 year old Shaibu Juma, running away.
The police gave him a hot chase and finally apprehended him and brought him to the car, where the driver and victim identified him as one of four persons who earlier attacked him.
A search on Shaibu revealed a knife, but he denied being part of the robbery attempt.
The police said the robbers inflicted knife wounds on the victim's back and other parts of the body.
Shaibu Juma is now assisting the police in their investigations.
