The residents told Adom News’ Akua Qwaning that they rushed to the scene upon hearing the screams of the woman, however, upon arrival, the culprits had bolted.
They observed that no personal effects of the victims were stolen.
They, however, said several calls to the police were ignored with their excuse of "not having a vehicle at the station.”

They have as a result blocked the route connecting Ho to Atimpoku as a means to register their displeasure on how the matter has been handled.
