The Ghana Police Service has debunked claims that a police personnel shot an alleged ballot box snatcher in Awutu Senya West Constituency.

In a Twitter post, the Service stated that the young man in question was not shot as earlier reported, but instead was saved from a mob attack by some youth in the area.

The youth had accused the man of being a ballot box thief.

According to the Police, the young man who was severely injured has been taken to the Swedru Government Hospital for treatment.

Investigations are currently ongoing.
