A birthday celebrant and guest have been accidentally shot by a police escort while attempting to give a gunshot salute in Lagos.

The video obtained by Naija News captured the moment the celebrant was seen in a money spray spree with friends before he was shot by his police escort.

Naija News reports that the unfortunate incident had occurred in a Lounge called DA SILVA on Monday night, 25th April, in Gowon estate, in Lagos state.

It was also gathered that two persons reportedly died from gunshot injuries, while the celebrant and other guests in the party sustained bullet wounds.

The MOPOL who shot sporadically was believed to be under influence of alcohol.

According to Eco Intelligence, while attempting to give the celebrant gun salute, the round selector was possibly on rapid firing resulting in losing control of the weapon, killing the celebrant and another guest on the spot.
