About 20 armed robbers on Saturday raided a house at Agona-Swedru, shot and wounded two tenants and took away, a saloon car, 5.3 million cedis and personal effects.
Those shot were the Agona-Swedru District Environmental Health Officer, Nana Opoku and Mr Kwaku Ntow, a co-tenant.
Nana Poku has been admitted at the Agona-Swedru Hospital and is responding to treatment while Ntow was treated and discharged.
The robbers took away a Daewoo Expero Saloon car, 4.7 million cedis, three video decks, a 20-inch colour television set, 14 pieces of cloth and a sound system belonging to Nana Poku.
Mr Ntow, who was shot in the left leg, had his mobile phone and camera taken away.
The robbers also attacked the Landlady, Mrs Esther Obeng and her husband Mr Ofori Adofo and made away with their video deck, a sound system, six full-pieces of cloth, four blankets and 600,000 cedis.
Mrs Obeng told the media that she heard an unusual noise at about midnight behind their house and woke up the husband, who checked and informed her that the robbers had surrounded the house.
The robbers soon started firing into the air. They used crowbars, hammers and chisel to break into the house and marched all the tenants into one of the rooms at gunpoint before beginning with their operation.
