A yet-to-be-identified mini truck driver has been found dead inside his vehicle after allegedly consuming alcohol in Amadim-Ukehe community, Igbo-Etiti Local Government Area of Enugu State.
According to eyewitness accounts shared on Facebook by a user, Ochu Loveth Tochi, the deceased was discovered lifeless inside the truck on Wednesday morning, with all the vehicle’s side windows wound up.
In her post, Tochi wrote that the man had reportedly locked himself inside the vehicle after allegedly drinking heavily the previous night, leading to suspected suffocation to death.
“He had wound up all the windows of the mini truck and slept there while he was drunk, and he got suffocated,” she said.
It was gathered that operatives of the Ogbede Police Division later removed the body from the scene and commenced an investigation into the incident.
