Should the military and the police always shoot to kill? The guy, according to the story was a simple thief but not an armed robber.

Why have they turn the guns bought with the tax payers money on us ? this is becoming 'something which is there' The authorities must do something drastic about it. Our men in uniform are now trigger happy because nothing happens to them when they go on Shooting spree. Were they not drunk at the time the Shooting took place? God save Ghanaman.

Mad. Afua Ahia, were you with him, and why was he running away on seeing the soldiers. Remember soldiers are trained to kill enemies of progress.

A cable thief? If true no sympathy for the deceased.I hope the same will happen to public officers and politicians stealing with impunity monies belonging to the state.

Frank,

Simple thieves do not dig meters deep down the earth to steal electricity and communication cables but really do petty stealing, like stealing one or two tubes of cassava, pulling one pineaple, pawpaw, mango from someone's farm, which I can say almost every Ghanaian has done at least once.

For instance, I never went to steal pinapples, but when crossing a pineapple farm, the fine scent of ripe ones caused me to pull one for self consumption and not for sale.

I do not support JB's call for doing instant justice to them, I'm of the opinion that they should be drastically dealt with.

they are suppose to call the police if there is theft...this is NOT their job to catch thieves

Why should the military cause a mess for the Police to come defend. Funny country indeed. What does the law say about the mandate of the military ?

The Ghana Police Service always have the propensity of telling lies. They defend the indefensible and that's very bad. They need to change for the better.

Ghanaian soldiers are disgracing us all. Why on earth do soldiers and policemen always have to shoot to kill? If they yearn so much to fire their weapons, they should just go to the range and fire off a few rounds. I'm in the United States military, and i've deployed twice, once to Ballad Iraq,and Parwan Afghanistan. My platoon, while on numerous missions, positively identified a few guys (Taliban) on our wanted list. These guys, at separate individual times, took to their heels, but we did not engage. We eventually caught them after proper tactical movement and interrogation. Ghanaian military and police need to stop shooting at every chance they get.

This is how armed robbers and those who chop chop peoples money in government should be treated. They must be shot, period.
