PRESS RELEASE

OYO STATE POLICE COMMAND ENHANCES INTELLIGENCE-LED OPERATIONS, ACHIEVES MAJOR SUCCESSES IN CRIME PREVENTION WITH RECENT ARREST OF DRIVER CARRYING ILLEGAL FI****MS

The Oyo State Police Command is excited to share the successful implementation of intelligence-driven stop and search operations throughout highways, primary roads, and essential intersections within the state. These efforts have yielded significant results, greatly increasing community safety and security.

On Thursday, September 18, 2025, at approximately 9:11 PM, a team from the Federal Highway Patrol conducted a stop and search at the Toll Gate on the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway in Ibadan. During this operation, a Toyota bus (registration number AFZ 933 XA) was stopped, and upon searching the vehicle, officers discovered several illegal items, including two locally-made single barrel fi****ms, two brand new short stainless steel machetes, and twenty live cartridges.

The driver was unable to provide a valid driver’s license or the necessary vehicle documentation at the time of the arrest and has been taken into custody along with the bus.

In addition, just one day prior, on Wednesday, September 17, 2025, other successful operations led to the recovery of a white Toyota Camry (registration number L*D 957 JX) along the Ogbomoso-Iseyin Road, as well as a disturbing quantity of human flesh found in a suspect's hand luggage inside a white commercial bus (registration number XA 551 IRG). These incidents illustrate the effectiveness of our targeted strategies against vehicle theft and various illicit activities.

Family To Welcome Baby Girl After 108 years of Having only Boys

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas (KTRK) - For more than 100 years, all the children born into one Texas family have been boys. Now, that streak is ending, and they couldn’t be happier.

Michael Sherman Jr., a Montgomery County firefighter, and his wife, Joacquia Sherman, were surrounded by generations of family Sunday when they found out they’re expecting a baby girl.

“I just feel honored that finally, we are the ones bringing the baby girl into the world – finally, after over 100 years. It’s amazing,” the expectant father said.

The gender reveal was a historic moment for the Sherman family, who say the last time a girl was born into the family was 108 years ago.
