Some commercial tricycle operators, popularly known as Keke Napep, have clashed with police officers in the Meiran area of Lagos State.
It was gathered that the incident occurred around Ile-Iwe bus-stop in the early hours of Thursday.
A witness alleged that the clash started when one of the tricycle operators refused to give a bribe to the policeman.

Speaking further, Odumosu said he is awaiting further report from the scene for police to commence proper in-depth investigation that will reveal what actually caused the clash.
