The Adukrom District Police Command has commenced investigation into the robbery attack on a fuel filling station at Asenema Saturday evening.
A three-member robbery gang on Saturday, August 14, 2021, at about 7:00pm invaded Frimps Fuel Filling station amidst sporadic gunshots, attacked the security man and a female fuel attendant on duty, and took away about Ghc1, 200 and mobile phones from them.
The robbers allegedly dressed like Fulani herdsmen also attacked and robbed passengers in a commercial vehicle that coincidentally drove to the filling station to buy fuel.
An earlier report by an eyewitness that the security man was shot and was feared dead was false.
Mybrytfmonline.com’s subsequent independent checks indicate that the security man was violently attacked with a stick by the armed robbers which crippled him hence fell motionless on the floor.
Mybrytfmonline.com has also established that the Adukrom Police arrived at the robbery scene an hour after the robbers had fled due to a lack of service driver.
The only service driver stationed at Adukrom District Police command has been transferred for some time now without replacement making it difficult for the command to embark on night patrols and respond to emergency cases since their drivers are purposely trained and equipped with unique skills for such situations.
Meanwhile, the Frimps fuel filling station has been temporarily shut down.
