One person has been burnt to death and another arrested for allegedly stealing goats and sheep at Esaso in the Atwima Nwabiagya North District of the Ashanti Region.
According to eyewitnesses, the suspects were apprehended by a mob at Marban, several miles away from the scene of the crime.
In an interview with Adom News’ Kwadwo OBeng Mireku, eyewitnesses said the incident took place on Tuesday, October 21, when the suspects, using a Pregio commercial bus, stole six goats and six sheep.
However, their escape was thwarted when residents gave them a chase, leading to a pursuit through nearby communities.
Upon reaching Marban, the suspects were confronted, and one of them was caught and lynched by the angry mob.
The vehicle was also set ablaze.
The other suspect managed to flee but was later arrested by the police and is currently assisting with investigations.
The stolen animals have been recovered by the police at Adankwame, who have launched an investigation into the incident.
