Two people have been confirmed dead, with two others in critical condition, following a fatal accident at Santasi Apire Himang in the Ashanti Region.
The incident occurred at about 5:30 a.m. on Friday, March 20, when a tipper truck loaded with sand, heading towards Himang, reportedly suffered a tyre burst. The driver subsequently lost control of the vehicle, crashing into two private cars, each carrying two occupants.
Personnel from the Ghana Police Service and the Ghana National Fire Service at Sofoline responded swiftly to a distress call and rushed to the scene. They retrieved the bodies of the deceased and rescued the injured.
The injured victims have been transported to Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital for emergency treatment, while the bodies of the deceased have been deposited at the morgue.
