A 35 year-old farmer is in the grips of the Enchi District Police Command for allegedly shooting his 19 year-old girlfriend to death at Adonikrom in the Aowin District of the Western Region.<\/p>\n
The suspect, Daniel Gyan, who lives in a cottage at Adonikrom in Enchi, was said to have had a misunderstanding with Emelia, and shot her in the chest through the back.<\/p>\n
The Enchi District Police Commander, Superintendent of Police, Raymond Kofi Erzuah, disclosed this in an interview with the Ghana News Agency.<\/p>\n
According to him, the suspect hails from Aburi in the Eastern Region.<\/p>\n
He said on March 9, at about 2200 hours, one Prosper Bedzo of Adonikrom who was accompanied by the police night patrol team came to the police station and made a complaint that, at about 1930 hours, a quarrel ensued between the deceased who is his niece, and the boyfriend Daniel over money.<\/p>\n
He said the suspect became offended, took his single barrel gun and shot Emelia and fled.<\/p>\n
He said those who witnessed the incident quickly went to Emelia’s aid, rushed her to the hospital for treatment but she died on the way.<\/p>\n
Superintendent Erzuah explained that the police apprehended Daniel on that same day at Botchweykrom, which is about two miles from where he had allegedly committed the offence.<\/p>\n
He said the suspect has since been detained for further investigations.<\/p>\n
The District Police Commander said Emelia’s body has since been deposited at the Enchi Government Hospital morgue for autopsy.<\/p>\n
