The Ondo State Police Command has confirmed the attack on Idogun Ido-Ani community in Ose Local Government Area of the state by bandits, during which a nine-year-old boy was abducted.
The incident reportedly occurred at 1:30 a.m. at Ugbosi quarters on Friday as the armed men invaded the community, firing gunshots and scaring residents.
The police, in a statement by their spokesperson, Abayomi Jimoh, said the gunmen forced their way into the residence of one Olaosebikan Isaac, a pastor, who, in a desperate attempt to save his life, escaped into the surrounding bush, leaving behind his nine-year-old son, Victor Olaosebikan.
The gunmen took away the boy when they could not reach the father.
