The gruesome incident occurred in the late hours of Monday, July 27, 2026, while the deceased, fondly called Asawado, was operating his vehicle with registration number AW 2458-20.
Ibrahim Gyamfi, who spoke to Kwame Awuah Nimfour, a journalist with Kumasi-based Opemsuo Radio, at the crime scene, said Kwabena Awuah was at home on the evening of July 27 around 8:00pm.
He narrated that the deceased had a misunderstanding with his wife in the evening and left home.
