He stated that the driver of the unregistered vehicle absconded when he noticed that the gun had been sighted inside his car.
The LASTMA boss said both the car and recovered gun had been handed over to the Divisional Police Officer at Ilasan for further investigation.
Oreagba, however, appealed to Lagosians to be security conscious and report any suspicious movement within their environment to security agencies.
