The corps Commandant, Mr Muhammad Gidado, told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Dutse that the suspect was arrested in Shuwarin, Kiyawa Local Government Area, for allegedly stealing 3 cartons of the noodles and 2 crates of eggs.
He said the corps had been trailing the suspect as one of the alleged criminals terrorising shop owners in Dutse and its environs for a long period.
