Man chops off fingers of 7 year old boy for stealing

Custom police at Idenau Limbe arrested a man who suspected to have chopped off 5 fingers of his neighbour's 7 year old son.

According to reports, the said miscreant committed the act on Monday morning. He caught the young boy stealing his fruits and used the boy's machete to cut off his fingers. The loud cry from the boy attracted curious neighbours who rushed to his rescue.

Acknowledging his deeds and not able to withstand the angry crowd, the said perpetrator dashed into thin air. Alarm was raised everywhere and on Tuesday morning, the man was whisked off to the gendarmerie brigade in Idenau by custom police who caught him while he tried to sneak himself into a boat to escape to Nigeria.

He's presently gnashing his teeth in the hands of gendarmes. Meantime, the young boy is said to be in a critical situation.
