The Police in Festac division, Lagos State, recently, rescued a toddler from an unidentified insane woman who was roaming the streets with the baby.

The middle-aged woman was carrying two polythene bags and was seen with the toddler who was sometimes clothed and at other times, left naked.It was learned that the woman who was wearing the apron of ‘Lord Chosen church’ was lying down with the malnourished toddler at the main road around Fagbems filling statioin close to Mile 2 area when she was rescued by policemen.

Crime Alert gathered that when police officers took the woman to the Lord Chosen church at Ijesha, the church attendant rejected her and the infant stating that she is not a member of their church even though she was wearing their apron.

When efforts to get details about the woman turned futile as she could not provide any useful information about herself, the bewildered police officers brought them back to the station and kept her and the child in an open office. It was learned that at a point, the woman became very violent and attacked one of the female officers who was attending to the toddler.

When it became obvious that she wasn’t comfortable in the open office, as all attempts to keep her calm were futile, she left the premises abandoning the toddler. The next morning, the toddler who is about a year old was taken to Juvenile and Women Center, Alakara.

When Crime Alert trailed the insane woman, she had relocated her base near a Church located at Alakija bus stop. She was naked but still had the church apron hanging on her shoulders while taking refuge against the scorching sun under a tree
