Adanwomase SHS student stabbed to death in Kumasi
Monday, May 4, 2020
The police have begun investigations into the murder of a first-year student of Adanwomase Senior High School. The student was stabbed to death in Kumasi over the weekend.
The victim, 17-year-old Richard Mensah, who suffered stab wounds was rushed to the Tafo Government Hospital, but was pronounced dead by medics at the facility.
Police at the Tafo/Pankrono Divisional Command in the Ashanti Region said the suspect, 19-year-old Sekyere Yeboah Gideon, has been arrested in connection with the incident and will be put before court.
Though police are yet to give full details about the incident, it is gathered that a long standing dispute between parents of the suspect and the deceased —who live in the same house at Tafo/Ahenbronum in the Old-Tafo Municipality —may have fueled the attack.
