Soldier dead, 4 others injured in fatal accident near Bawku

A military officer has reportedly lost his life in an accident involving an armored vehicle at Saka, a suburb of the Bawku West District.

Several others have also sustained serious injuries in the Upper East Regional town.

The soldiers were en route from Bawku to Bolgatanga when a tyre on their vehicle burst, causing the driver to lose control, leading to the vehicle overturning.

According to eyewitnesses, the vehicle with registration number 21GA39 was on escort duties to Bawku but lost control after the left back tyre dislodged while in motion.

This resulted in the vehicle somersaulting several times.

Local residents assisted the police in transporting the deceased and injured officers to the Zebilla District Hospital for medical attention.
