A 27-year-old fisherman, Yao Senya, has been picked up by police at Anloga for allegedly stabbing a 71-year-old man to death at Atito in the Volta Region.
This comes after a report was filed on Wednesday, September 15, 2021.
Preliminary investigations by the police indicated that the deceased’s son got into a fight with the suspect’s son.
The deceased, however, was said to have come in to beat up the son of the suspect, a situation that infuriated the latter who in turn sought to retaliate.
Mr Senya, in his attempt to retaliate, allegedly pulled out a knife and inflicted multiple wounds on the chest, neck, and shoulder of Dumega, now deceased.
