A fight between two friends over a hundred naira tip given to them for catching a fleeing cow has resulted in the death of one of them.
The unfortunate incident happened last Thursday at the cattle market in Abaji, a suburb of the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
According to eyewitness accounts, the two friends had helped a cattle dealer to catch a run away cow.
An argument over who should take the N100 tip given to them for their efforts by the cattle dealer degenerated into a fight during which one fatally hit the other on the neck.
The Abaji Divisional Police Officer. CSP Tersoo Tile confirmed the incident, adding that the remains of the deceased which was deposited at Abaji General Hospital had been released to his relatives for burial.
Tile also said that the killer friend who survived jungle justice in the hands of the mob which gathered at the scene was taken to the University of Abuja Teaching Hospital, Gwagwalada for treatment.
