A Nigerian teenager is apprehended while attempting to poison his best friend and two brothers in order to steal their iPhone X.
A video circulating on social media depicted a young boy’s desperate attempt to take the lives of three people in order to steal and flee with one of their smartphones.
He could be heard being questioned in the video about how he planned to carry out the plan without being discovered. He admitted to putting rat poison in their food in the hopes of killing them.
His best friend could be heard in the background feeling betrayed by the move, but was calmed down so that the teenager could give his full confession. The 30-second video, however, did not go into detail about how the plan failed or whether he was turned over to police for further investigation.
“Little boy wants to poison his bestfriend and two brothers because he wants to steal iPhone X,” the video’s caption read.
The video has since elicited mixed reactions on social media, with many criticizing his desperate search for a device with a short lifespan.
