Two persons have sustained severe gunshot wounds at Busia Junction near Odorkor in Accra, following a robbery attack\u00a0on a Mobile Money operation point.<\/p>\n
According to eyewitnesses who spoke to Citi News’<\/strong> Ebenezer Afanyi Dadzie, the two suspected robbers in a saloon car, approached the Mobile money point around 8:00pm\u00a0on Thursday, and asked the vendor to hand over her money.<\/p>\n In the process, they fired a warning shot after the female vendor screamed for help.<\/p>\n One of the injured persons, a male, who was shot in the head, was about transacting business with the vendor when he was shot and his bag taken from him.<\/p>\n It is unclear whether he may have angered the suspects by attempting to resist their action.\u00a0The suspects managed to rob the Mobile Money Point of their money, and immediately sped off in their saloon car.<\/p>\n The other injured person, who was shot in the rib, was also lying on the floor in pain, as residents made several failed attempts to reach the police and emergency services.<\/p>\n
