A tragic incident occurred at Anloga Junction in Kumasi where a stationary articulated truck unexpectedly moved, resulting in one confirmed fatality and two individuals critically injured.
Eyewitnesses reported that when the truck began moving on its own, bystanders were alerted to run for safety. Unfortunately, it struck some individuals near the roadside.
Three people were trapped under the truck, and it took fire service officers over an hour to extricate them.
The first two individuals, both females, were promptly transported to the hospital for treatment. However, the third person, upon being rescued, was found to be deceased. The police then conveyed the body to the morgue.
This incident follows another recent accident at the same location where a vehicle veered off the road and crashed into shops.
