A 23-year-old boy, John Idoko, was reportedly killed at a pub in Lagos, during a scuffle between fans of Barcelona and Chelsea football clubs on Tuesday. It was gathered that trouble began when some football fans besieged the bar, known as Cheese bay along Boundary Street of the area, to watch the match but were dissatisfied with the condition the bar man gave before they could be allowed to gain entrance. A resident of the area, recounted that the bar man was said to have told interested viewers to buy at least a bottle of drink each before they could be admitted into the bar. "The victim, John, bought a yoghurt but got angry when he was told by the bar man to go out since he couldn't buy a bottle of beer. Out of annoyance, the deceased and other fans were alleged to have started destroying properties in the bar. Prince had to seek self defence by using a chisel to fight back. In the process, he was alleged to have hit a chisel into John's neck.
