Armed robbers reportedly attacked a 41-year-old cocoa officer at Assin Fosu in the Central Region on Thursday dawn at his home.
They inflicted machete wounds on Lucas Osei who is now on admission to a hospital.
The robbers made away with cash of Gh¢100,000, two laptops and two mobile phones.
The incident according to the police happened around 2 am on Thursday, at New Habitat, a suburb of Assin Fosu.
No arrest has been made.
The masked robbers numbering about four were said to have attacked Osei in his room at a time he was asleep.
Some eyewitnesses said they heard Osei shouting for help and when they responded they found him in a pool of blood in his room.
They rushed him to the St. Francis Xavier Hospital.
Meanwhile, a team of police officers, led by the Central North Regional Police Crime Officer, Superintendent Daniel Kwabena Darko, has retrieved a machete and scissors believed to have been used for the attack.
