While the Member of Parliament for Dormaa West constituency, Ali Maiga Halidu had accused the NDC of busing thugs from Sankore and Kasapin in the Ahafo Region to intimidate members of the NPP, the former MP for the area, Vincent Oppong Asamoah had denied the allegations.
The disagreement according to sources, led to some gunshots being fired which resulted in the death of Kofi Stephen.
Videos available to JoyNews also showed a pickup car on fire and some motorcycles being burnt.
The intervention by the police restored order to the community while Mallam Illiausu and Kwame Grutan were transported to the Dormaa Ahenkro Presbyterian Hospital for treatment.
