A viral video on Wednesday involving a yet to be identified motorist who smashed bottle on a police officer’s head is presently the talk of the town on the social media.
As seen in the video, the policeman had apparently insisted on impounding what looks like a mini-truck, when the incident happened.
Argument ensued between the policeman and a man holding a bottle at the back of the vehicle, who was trying to force the security man to come down from the truck.

Onlookers were also heard from the background prodding the man with the bottle, who is apparently the owner of the vehicle, to assault the policeman and the latter brazenly did by hitting the policeman with the bottle on the head.
A Twitter user APC Support with the handle @APCNigeria, which posted the video, condemned the assault on the policeman.
The group wrote: “As much as we stand against #PoliceBrutality, we must also condemn acts like this in the strangest of terms. We call on @PoliceNG, @PoliceNG_CRU, @rrslagos767 to investigate this video, especially if it’s recent, and prosecute the perpetrator of this evil.”
Recall a similar incident few days ago, when ASP Sunday Erhabor, attached to the Rapid Response Squad (RRS) of the State Command was assaulted by one Victor Ebhomenyen at Four Point by Sheraton Hotel, Oniru area of Lagos at the weekend.
