The photo of a suspect who reportedly absconded with a Mercedes Benz GLB 250 during a test drive has surfaced after he was declared wanted by the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) Police Command.
Recall that a car dealer identified as Manga had filed a complaint alleging that one Henry, who claims he resides in Gwarinpa, absconded with one of his cars.
Recall that Manga’s friend who also deals in cars, took the Benz worth ₦55m and with a mileage of 19000 to Henry for a test drive.
It was learned that a few minutes into the test drive, Manga’s friend excused himself to withdraw money from a point of sale (PoS) operator. It was at this point that Henry disappeared with the car.
However, in a new development, the stolen Mercedes-Benz GLB SUV was found in Delta State and it was recovered nearly 4 days after the suspect absconded with it.
Announcing the recovery of the stolen car, an auto dealer, posted a photo of the alleged thief and a video of the car on its official Twitter handle.
The user stated, “Alhamdulillah its OFFICIAL‼️ The Stolen Car (MERCEDES BENZ GLB-250, 2021 MODEL) Was found today 4th July, 2023 in NIGER DELTA (ASABA)!”
The SUV was found in Asaba but the thief is still on the run.
