In the nation’s capital, Accra, thieves killed a police officer while attacking a bullion van at Ablekuma Fanmilk.
The only name given to the now-deceased cop is Amoah.

The assault came after a quick stop at a gas station.
The driver was unharmed and survived the attack.
The police said in a statement that they are searching for “a gang of four robbers” who ambushed the vehicle and “shot the police escort who, sadly, passed away.”
“Our prayers and thoughts are with the family of our deceased colleague, in particular, and all personnel of the Police Service in general”, the statement added.
