A clash between youth groups in Pankrono in the Old Tafo Municipality of the Ashanti Region has led to the death of a 27-year-old man.
The deceased, Kwame Owusu, who was returning from a toilet, was caught in the clash between the youth of Pankrono Zongo and Pankrono Adabraka in the Old Tafo Municipality.
He died shortly after being rushed to Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital after the attack on Wednesday around 6:45 p.m.
Two persons have been arrested by police in the Ashanti Region.
“Around 6:45 pm yesterday, Kwame told me he was going to check something after I asked him to come and eat. A few minutes later, I had a call that my son had been attacked by some unknown gangs. When I got there, I saw my son unconscious, so I rushed him to Tafo Hospital where he was referred to Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital but could not survive. He is currently at the mortuary.” The mother of the deceased, Ama Afra told Silver FM’s Akwadaa Nyame
Madam Ama Afra added that his son was stabbed in his neck and also injected with a poisonous substance.
Some youth at Pankrono Adabraka have threatened revenge since the deceased was not part of their previous issue.
