Samuel Mugagura aka Falcao, a renowned tear gas inventor was arrested on his introduction ceremony day to fianc\u00e9e Sharon Kisakye.<\/p>\n

Mugagura and five of his friends who were allegedly driving under the influence of alcohol spent the night at Kiira Police station after they knocked a taxi on their return home from the ceremony.\"\"<\/p>\n

According to Campus Bee, one of the suspects Paul Weboya popularly known as Paul Webs, a social media personality revealed that Mugarura and his other friends passed by to check on him at his home in Kyanja when the police came to arrest them.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy friends came to check on me at my place,\u00a0kumbe<\/em> they had knocked some taxi along the way. They gave the driver some money to repair the stuff (vehicle) but he instead called police for us. As a host, I was taken up too\u201d Weboya recounted.\"\"<\/p>\n

The group, although arrested managed to take a photo while in the police cell, a thing that left many wondering how they sneaked a phone in against the police standard rules.<\/p>\n

Samuel Mugarura, a final year student then of Chemistry and Botany at Makerere University attracted public attraction when he invented a tear gas in 2016.\"\"<\/p>\n

He utilized the storeroom in his mother\u2019s house and used common ingredients like onions, red pepper, and mangoes.<\/p>\n

This became a topic of interest for security operatives, academicians and even President Museveni who pledged to fund his project.<\/p>\n

Falcao was known among Makerere University students as a zealous fighter of ‘unfair’ university policies, strike leader and guild president campaign influencer during his stay at the Ivory Tower.<\/p>\n
