A young man has been beaten to death in Anambra State, Nigeria after some children he was chasing accused him of being a kidnapper when in fact he was not a kidnapper.
According to the reports in local media, Paschal was driving through the town of Umuoji when some young kids throwing stones broke his windshield and took to their heels.
As expected, he stopped and chased them and caught one of the kids. The remaining children run home and told people that a kidnapper has taken their brother.

People who saw what happened when the kids broke his windshield came forward and the kids finally spoke the truth.
