Story: Dorcas Abedu-Kennedy [Rainbow Radio]
Three people lost their lives in a fatal accident which occurred at Assin Akrofuom in the Central Region.
Four other passengers were also injured.
The accident involved a cargo truck with registration number AS 2951 10 and a Metro Mass Transit bus with registration numbers GT 7781 Y.
The Metro Mass Transit bus was from New Adubiase heading to Accra while the cargo truck carrying mobile network poles and wires was also from Accra heading towards Kumasi.
One of the deceased died on the spot while the two died on their way to a near-bye health centre.
Eye witness’ account had it that they suspect the driver of the cargo truck driver was dozing and so lost control of the steer which resulted in the accident.
They told our Central Regional correspondent, Kofi Otabil that the Metro Mass driver in trying to prevent head-on collision with the truck, blew horn but to no avail. The truck therefore crossed the Metro Mass bus damaging the vehicle as well.
He says the poles in the truck fell on some of the passengers which resulted into the injury and killing one on the spot.
Both the injured and dead have been taken to Assin Foso St Martins Hospital for treatment and autopsy.
