Police vehicle kills motor rider at Tesano

-

A police vehicle has fatally knocked down a motor rider at Zongo Junction on the Achimota-Tesano stretch.

Accra-based UTV reported that the police car, traveling on the Accra-bound road, failed to notice the rider due to heavy traffic on both sides of the road.

It is alleged that the driver of the vehicle, with registration number GP-413, was speeding on the way to an event at the Police Training School and rammed into the rider.

The yet-to-be-identified rider died on the spot.

In response, traffic patrol officers promptly seized the vehicle and impounded it at the Tesano Police Station, where the driver was detained.

The body of the deceased, along with the damaged motorcycle, has been transported to the police morgue.
