A 36-year-old man has been robbed and shot dead at Atonsu in Kumasi.
Maxwell Awetor, a resident of Ahinsan Estate, is said to have made an unknown transaction in the area.
He decided to visit a friend at a house which was 100 metres away from the crime scene.
Eyewitnesses said they spotted two men on a motorbike arriving at the house.
One of the suspected robbers spotting a black T-shirt with camouflage shorts followed the deceased. Then a loud gunshot sound was heard.
The suspected assailant jumped on the waiting motorbike with a brown envelope and the two sped off.
Mr Awetor was found in a pool of blood with a bullet wound on his neck.
The body has been deposited at the Kumasi South Hospital mortuary while the police begin investigations.
