Police recover stolen cab

The Ho police on Friday afternoon recovered a Hyundai ‘Excel’ taxicab with registration number VR. 158 Q that was snatched from Mr. Amadu Issaka, after being shot in the right jaw by a male passenger on the Akrofu-Bame road, near Ho.

Mr. Amadu, told reporters at the Regional Hospital where he is receiving treatment that the robber stopped him near the offices of the Regional Co-ordinating Council at about 1 a.m. and told him that he was a tutor at Ho Polytechnic visiting another teacher at Akrofu.

Mr. Amadu said on reaching Akrofu, the robber got down, went to the local junior secondary school and came back to inform him that his friend had left for Bame.

He said a few metres on the way towards Bame, the robber asked him to stop to enable him to attend to nature’s call.

On resumption of the journey, the robber again said he had dropped his bunch of keys so he stopped for him to go and search for it during which the robber shot at Amadu’s right jaw.

Personnel of the Electricity Company of Ghana who were travelling on the road found Mr. Amadu, lying unconscious by the road side and rushed him to the Ho Regional Hospital.

Mr. Albert K. Acquah, Regional Crime Officer, said the vehicle was retrieved when police was informed about an abandoned taxi on the outskirts of Kpeve with a flat tyre.

He said police are carrying out further investigations and called on communities in the area to organise search parties for the arrest of the robber.
