Safety in your hands : Mob kills 'would-be-bomber' in Gombe City

An angry mob today beat a suspected would-be suicide bomber to death after he was accosted at a bus station in northeast Nigeria, police and witnesses said.

The man was stopped as he tried to get into the bus station in the Gombe state capital, Gombe city, where at least eight people were killed in a series of blasts at the same location last month.

"There was a scuffle. He was overpowered by the onlookers who pounced on him in order to assist in making sure his bag was searched," state police commissioner Abdullahi Kudu told reporters.

"Mob action overtook the event but we thank God he was not able to detonate the explosives because he had a remote. The remote was equally recovered."

A bomb disposal team made safe the explosives, which Kudu said were five rocket-propelled grenades, two mortars, two cylinders and five detonators.
