WARNING – DISTURBING PICTURES: Nigerian law student shot dead in US
Headlines Sunday, April 24th, 2011
Tears flowed freely as the corpse of Oluseun Fashina popularly known as
“Olie”, a Nigerian undergraduate law student of the University of Maryland,
College Park was laid to rest on Saturday at Clinton cemetery in Maryland,
USA.
His death occurred around 4:14 am on Sunday, April 17th, 2011 when
officers from the Prince Georges County police were informed of a shooting
at Glenshire Drive.
On arrival at the scene, the officers found Seun soaked in his blood at the
1500 block of Jennings Lane, near his house in Bowie. He later died at a
nearby hospital after all efforts to save him were unsuccessful.
The County Police have since arrested Ransford Caulker 25, Tanseh John
Nicholas 25, and Alusine Kanu 22, in connection with the crime and have
all been held without bond. The trio were said to have had a disagreement
which led to Seun being shot.
Some Nigerian Community who attended the funeral expressed concerns
over the spate of shootings and death among college students even as
they hailed the 23 year old boy as humble, easy going and God fearing
person.
Pastor Oye Sobo of Watchman Ministries, Glenn Dale described him as “a
really brilliant kid.”wp_posts
