Two Ghanaians Shot Dead In USA

Worcester, Massachusetts - Two young Ghanaian boys (now holding US citizenship) were shot to death, as they sat in a car with friends, across the street from the Common behind City Hall - off the franklin and portland street - early Saturday morning, police said. They had just come out of a night club in Worcester.

Circumstances leading to the shooting are still unclear.... so far this is what has been pieced together:

Frank "KOFI ABERKU" Vanney, the 23-year-old victim who was shot to death along with his 21-year-old friend, OSEI OWUSU, had made new acquaintances in the city several months ago, according to a witness who was in the backseat of the black sedan that received the hail of bullets
