Three arrested for stealing sardines from overturned truck on Accra–Kumasi highway
The Nkawkaw Divisional Police Command has arrested three individuals for allegedly stealing cartons of sardines from a cargo truck that was involved in an accident on the Accra–Kumasi highway at Kwahu Fodua in the Kwahu West Municipality.
The truck, a fully loaded container with registration number AA 119CY, was travelling from Accra to Kumasi with the driver and his mate on board when it overturned, blocking traffic in both directions.
Although investigations are ongoing, preliminary information suggests the driver swerved to avoid a pothole in the middle of the road, causing the vehicle to tip over.
The accident attracted a crowd of residents and passersby. While some assisted efforts to tow the vehicle off the road, three individuals were caught stealing sardines from the overturned truck and were subsequently handed over to the police.
