Apamyeba Gariba, 65, a watchman, who was also tied and gagged alongside Charles, however, survived the ordeal, and was rescued by the Police Buffalo Unit, who rushed to the scene minutes after the robbers had struck at the house of the late Maxwell Owusu at Nhyiaso, where the two were keeping watch.
The garden boy in the house, Yamah Grushie, managed to escape before the robbers could attack him.
A police source told the Graphic that around 2 a.m. on Thursday, the robbers, numbering about nine, invaded the house at West Nhyiaso.
The source said as soon as the robbers entered the house, they tied the hands and legs of the private security man and the watchman, gagged them before breaking into the main hall.

They however, saved the 65-year-old security man by untying him and removing the gag in his mouth. So far, no arrest has been made.
