Thomas, 28-year old believed to be mentally challenged has wounded two people at
Techiman in the Brong Ahafo region of Ghana.
Two of the victims who are said to be in critical condition were
rushed to the Techiman Holy Family Hospital for treatment.
The third victim, Sumaila who sustained an injury on the arm has
been discharged from the hospital.
The discharged victim, Sumaila said the suspect slit his arm with
the machete after he tried to stop him from killing one of the victims.
The suspect according to eyewitness tried to escape after
committing the absurd act but was knocked down by a motorbike.
He was arrested by the police and is currently receiving treatment
under police watch.
“We have been playing with him, we do not know what came over
him,” an eyewitness said.
Sumaila alleged that the suspect is not mentally challenged as
believed but misbehaves whenever he smokes.
According to Sumaila, Thomas buys wee (cannabis) with money he
makes from helping some khebab sellers.
He adds that the machete used by Thomas belongs to the khebab
seller.
