Retired Police boss kills self, wife and son in Ogun state

A retired Assistant Commissioner of Police,
Sunday Isokpehi, who at one time served at the
Lagos state police command anti-robbery squad,
on Saturday September 20th, killed himself, his
wife Gladys and their son at their Sango Ota,
Ogun state residence after a heated argument
with his wife.
According to reports, the former police boss and
his wife began fighting when they returned home
from a wedding on Saturday after he accused her
of disgracing him at the wedding by getting
drunk.
The woman reportedly denied being drunk and
before anyone could stop the couple, they started
fighting. Seeing that his wife was overpowering
him, the retired police boss went for his pump
action riffle and shot his wife and then shot their
son who had been trying to separate them.
Seeing the gravity of the crime he'd committed,
Isokpehi reportedly turned the gun on himself.
After the unfortunate incident, neighbours told
police that the couple fought regularly.
Confirming the sad incident, the Ogun state
Police spokesman, Olumuyiwa Adejobi, said the
bodies of the all three have been deposited at the
hospital for autopsy. He said the police will carry
out a detailed investigation.
