An eye witness gave an account saying there were two officers of the opposite gender on the spot when the “robbery” occurred in broad daylight.

The witness said; “There are these steep roads that connect to the road, and the spot where the officers were based is shaped like a wedge. That is the road the young man used to escape. On realizing he could not catch the young man, the officer shouted at him many times. But there is little he could do as the man vanished into the bushes.”

The witness further added that one male police officer attempted to pursue the thief, however, his efforts were in vain as he couldn’t get hold of him.

Prior to the incident, the officers had reportedly stopped at least four vehicles for inspection with other officers who had gathered the cash at a central point for sharing at the end of the day’s operation when the thief outsmarted them.
