A dramatic scene unfolded on Sunday, August 17, 2025, near the 37 Military Hospital in Accra, when a suspected thief scaled a tall tree in a bid to escape an angry mob.
Adom News’ Akowuah Gyamerah Twum, who visited the scene, reported that the man had attempted to steal banners from a billboard near the 37 traffic light late at night.
However, luck eluded him as he was given a hot chase.
In an attempt to avoid being apprehended and possibly beaten, the suspect, whose identity is yet to be established, climbed a large tree between the 37 lorry terminal and the hospital.
The suspect remained on the branches for several hours while a hostile crowd gathered beneath, threatening mob justice.
After waiting for hours on the tree, he managed to descend and escape on the morning of Monday, August 18, 2025.
