A man identified as Toyin Eniafe was fatally shot by a security operative during a confrontation at a filling station in Lagos State.
The incident occurred on Wednesday evening when the deceased visited a filling station in the Obalende area of the state.
Subsequently, enraged youths in the vicinity, angered by the killing, went on a rampage and set two patrol vans belonging to the security operatives on fire.
These burnt vehicles reportedly belonged to the Department of State Security Service (DSS) operatives.
