Mob Burns Man Alive For Stealing Pot Of Soup In Calabar!

Na Wa o! A man who was part of a three-man gang who smelt a pot of soup warming before dawn and followed the aroma to the kitchen of a private residence definitely got more than he bargained for.

According to report, a woman who was at the stove as they took the pot shouted for help and the three were chased by neighbours as they tried to escape. The mob caught up with the man holding the
soup and attacked him with machetes before setting him on fire. The unidentified victim's corpse was left outside a secondary school in the city of Calabar after his death on Sunday ,

A resident of the area reportedly said; “This is not the first time they have come to our compound to steal. Last week, they removed the car battery of one of our neighbours.”

The police however condemned the killing, saying “every suspect is presumed innocent until proven guilty”.
