The altercation attracted a huge crowd, prompting the policemen to call for reinforcement to prevent the crowd from attacking them. Adedeji, an eyewitness, said, “When the policemen got to the junction, they went to the parked car and ordered the driver to roll down the glass of the car because it was tinted and they could not identify those in the car. Immediately the driver rolled the glasses down Mercy Aigbe rushed out of the car to confront the policemen. They eventually took her and the boy who drove, away.” Her brother was pushed into the back of the parol van, while Aigbe was allowed to remain in her car which was driven away by a policeman.
