GHANASS student storms Police station with pistol; tries to attack officer

The student, identified as Joshua Yao Korkpartey Sarfo, invaded the Police station holding a pistol and a metallic implement to attack a Police investigator, identified as Noah Oppong.

Accra-based Starr FM reports that the 19-year-old day student who hails from Accra is under investigation for stealing students’ mattresses in the school but was granted Police enquiry bail.
