The Ghans Police Service has arrested one Michael Tyron for attacking and snatching the mobile phones of two persons at Thunder Lilly East Legon.
According to a Twitter post by the Police, two phones, two kitchen knives, a wifi device and some cash were retrieved from the suspect.
The victims immediately reported the incident to the nearest police patrol team leading to the arrest of the robber.
Tyron is currently in police custody pending processing for Court.
This is the second Twitter update on arrests this week made by the Service.
In the first incident, Solomon Kwame Boadu at race-course, a suburb of Sowutuom in the Greater Accra Region, was charged for the murder of Kwesi Wiafe, aged 73.
