Two people have died at Patasi in Kumasi after a school bus went out of control and crashed into them in front of a storey building.
The deceased have been identified as 74-year-old Maame Serwaa and a man known only as Alfred, believed to be in his late 40s. One other person sustained critical injuries.
According to eyewitnesses, the victims were engaged in a conversation near the house when the bus ran over them.
The driver claims he suffered brake failure which led to the accident, and also caused the destruction of property.
Police and fire officers intervened to retrieve the victims who were trapped under the vehicle.
The injured person is receiving treatment at the Suntreso Government Hospital, while the driver is assisting with a police investigation.
