The Awutu Breku District police command has arrested three persons in connection with a burglary at Akrampa in the Awutu Breku of the Central Region.
The suspects, Emmanuel Kofi Bawumia, 40, Nicholas Osei, 25, and Desmond Agyapong, 26, are said not to be residents of the area.
Information gathered by Adom News suggested they broke into about six rooms in the area and were on another when irate residents grabbed them.
But for the timely intervention of the police, these persons would have been lynched by the irate residents.
