A gory accident at Teacher Mante on the Suhum-Nsawam road has taken the life of six after a mini bus rammed into a container that had fallen off a truck.

The Ayensuano District Police Commander, DSP Charles Ahiamale, who disclosed this said the truck was carrying a container loaded with logs from Kumasi to Accra.

He said the container fell off the truck on the outskirts of Teacher-Mante where a Land Cruiser that was not aware rammed into. He, however, indicated that that crush did not record casualties.

DSP Charles Ahiamale indicated that the Mini Bus also rammed into the container by 2pm on Sunday after the driver refused to pay heed when police stopped him.

“The driver of the minibus and the passengers were injured. We conveyed them to the Nsawam Government Hospital but they were pronounced dead this morning – five males and one female.”
