Boy stabs man to death over wood

A 23-year-old boy has been stabbed to death in yet another murder at Kwadaso-Boola, a suburb of Kumasi.

Isaac, popularly known as Awanaa was stabbed several times in the neck and arms by a colleague in a fight over leftover wood.

Luv FM’s Erastus Asare Donkor said the misunderstanding took place at a wood milling factory with the two divided over who had the right to sell the left over wood.

It degenerated into a full blown fight with the suspected killer, Kofi Teye, 16, stabbing the deceased with scissors.

An eye witness told Asare Donkor the deceased got up and chased the suspect in a bid to avenge the attack, but he was stabbed, this time with a knife.

The suspect has been arrested by the Sofoline police. Investigations have commenced.
