Tragedy struck in the Orile area of Lagos state after an officer of the Federal Road Safety Corporation was squeezed to death while attempting to stop an oncoming lorry.
Videos shared online suggest that the officer had placed his head into the car through the driver's side window in an attempt to stop the driver of the lorry.
However the driver continued driving and ran into a parked petrol tanker. The video showed the squeezed head of the driver trapped between the lorry and the tanker and his body was dangling outside.
