Four wounded, including a baby, in Kasoa wall collapse

Four individuals, among them a 6-month-old infant, suffered injuries when a cemetery wall collapsed on them in Kasoa Zongo, located in the Awutu Senya East Municipality of the Central Region on Monday.

The incident, spurred by heavy rains, transpired as the victims sought refuge under a shelter near the market center adjacent to the cemetery.

Reports suggest the wall had been deteriorating over time before finally giving way, resulting in injuries to those beneath it.

Among the injured, a 16-year-old boy and a 60-year-old woman sustained severe injuries and are presently undergoing treatment at the Kasoa Polyclinic.

Meanwhile, the toddler and his mother have been treated and discharged from medical care.
