An accident involving a DAF truck with registration number GN 9845 – 14 and a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter bus with registration number GR 1775 – 15 has killed one person and injured 10 others.
The accident occurred at about 4am on Wednesday, 1 March at Assin Juaben in the Assin South district along the Cape Coast-Kumasi highway.
The injured have been sent to the Cape Coast and Abura Dunkwa hospitals where they are receiving treatment.
Confirming the news to journalists, ASP Andam Okyere, the Assin South Police Commander, said: “The driver and the mate of the Sprinter bus are nowhere to be found since the accident occurred.
