A suspected transformer vandal met his waterloo in Anambra State on Wednesday as village youths captured and burnt him alive during a vandalization operation in the state. It was gathered that the incident happened at Ifite village in Ezinifite, Nnewi South Local Government Area of the state. “The suspects, on sensing the presence of the villagers and the security, rushed into their cars and zoomed off. The first bus carrying four of them had escaped, but the people couldn’t catch them,” the eyewitness said. The captured suspects were reportedly beaten by the villagers, and the one who had been shot earlier in the leg was burned alive by the angry mob.
