According to reports, 21 persons died on the spot while one person died at the Kintampo Government Hospital.
The Yendi-Kumasi bound bus with registration number AS 4635-22 which had 52 passengers onboard, crashed with a trailer truck with registration number GW 1127 P carrying tiles.

Those who survived the accident are receiving treatment at the Kintampo Hospital while the dead have been deposited at the Kintampo Government Hospital morgue.
