A man has reportedly been killed in a hit-and-run accident at Assin Akyiase, off the Assin Fosu-Cape Coast highway in the Central Region.
According to eyewitnesses, a heavy-duty truck ran over the victim while he was attempting to cross the highway.
Kojo Rockson, one of the eyewitnesses, said the truck crushed the man beyond recognition.
He alleged that the victim was intoxicated and could not run when the truck approached him at high speed.
“It was a hit-and-run. The car was big. The police came to assess the situation and covered him with weed. It’s a man. His intestines are all out. His head is crashed, and his hands and legs are all broken. We know him. He’s from our side.
“He was drunk. He would have fled,” he narrated.
Meanwhile, the Assin Central District Police is said to have gone to assess the scene and moved the body to the mortuary for further investigation.
