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 incident according to the police happened around 2 am on Thursday, at New Habitat, a suburb of Assin Fosu.
