Drunk Driver Rammed Into a Parking Garage, Killed Teenager

A teenager identified as Bassey Edet, was killed after a drunk driver rammed a Toyota Picnic car into a parking lot in the Odigbo local government area of Ondo state.

The teenager is believed to be selling puffs and dumplings at the park before the unfortunate incident along the always busy Odigbo-Ore road on Saturday, May 13, 2023.

The presence of security guards at the scene calmed the situation so that it would not turn into another scenario.

According to the state-owned newspaper, HOPE, an eyewitness said that the yet-to-be-identified driver of the Toyota Picnic with number plate EPE 576DC was allegedly drunk while driving.

The witness said: “The driver drove at top speed, hit a garage and killed a teenager identified as Bassey Edet.”

The driver was arrested by the police, while the damaged vehicle and motorcycle were taken to the Odigbo Police Station.

The boy’s remains have been deposited at the Oregon morgue.
